Ian Austin – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Ian Austin on 2015-01-15.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what assessment he has made of the potential effect that the recently announced reductions in staffing levels at the Dudley Group of Hospitals will have on (a) patient care and (b) waiting times.
Dr Daniel Poulter
The Department has made no such assessment.
It is a matter for the local National Health Service to plan its workforce, and to ensure it has the appropriate staff in place to provide high quality care for its patients.
