HC Deb 25 July 1968 vol 769 c188W
Mr. Moonman

asked the Minister of Health if he will consider appointing a commissioner for the hospital service to handle complaints from patients and nurses.

Mr. K. Robinson

I have no evidence to suggest that the present arrangements for the handling of complaints in the hospital service are not working satisfactorily. But the Green Paper on the future administration of the medical and related services published on Tuesday includes some suggestions about arrangements for dealing with complaints in a comprehensive health service.
