Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Philip Dunne and David Linden

Tuesday 10th October 2017 Commons Chamber

[The Minister of State, Department of Health (Mr Philip Dunne)]

My hon. Friend is a doughty campaigner for Frenchay hospital and keeps it uppermost in our minds. The way in which we are looking at the pattern of health provision for the next period is through the STP process, and I encourage him to engage with the STP leadership in his area and make the case for Frenchay hospital.

[David Linden (Glasgow East) (SNP)]

Will she follow the example of the Scottish Government and provide parity of funding?
