Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Jane Ellison and Rishi Sunak

Tuesday 7th July 2015 Commons Chamber

[Jane Ellison]

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his interest in this important subject. As he knows, we are looking at care right across the diabetes pathway, with a view to building on the first ever at-scale national diabetes prevention programme. I will take up the issue he raises and look at it in the context of all the other aspects of diabetes care we are examining.

[Rishi Sunak (Richmond (Yorks)) (Con)]

Last week, Reeth medical centre in my constituency received an “outstanding” Care Quality Commission rating. Will my right hon. Friend join me in congratulating it and recognise that small practices in rural areas are still an important part of our healthcare system?
