Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Kate Green and Stephen Hammond

Tuesday 7th May 2019 Commons Chamber

[The Minister for Health (Stephen Hammond)]

My hon. Friend will have heard me say in answer to the earlier question that my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State and the Chancellor are in discussions about that matter. It would be unfair of me to comment on the progress of those discussions, but we hope to resolve them soon.

[Kate Green (Stretford and Urmston) (Lab)]

T3. Maternity Action reports that migrant women requiring maternity care from NHS hospitals are being deterred from receiving treatment by charges and fear of immigration sanctions. Will the Secretary of State meet me and campaigners to discuss what we can do to address that worrying situation?
