Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Stephen Kinnock and Charlie Maynard

Tuesday 19th November 2024 Commons Chamber

[Stephen Kinnock]

We have pledged to bring back the family doctor, and we have already invested an additional £82 million in the additional roles reimbursement scheme to recruit 1,000 more newly qualified GPs in 2024-25. We are also committed to fixing the front door of the NHS, for example through £100 million of capital funding that was announced in the Budget. We are fully aware of the pressures, and we will set out further details on funding allocations for next year in due course.

[Charlie Maynard (Witney) (LD)]
