HC Deb 05 November 1979 vol 973 cc46-7W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will now publish his proposals for the reorganisation of the National Health Service in order to avoid speculation in the form of press reports.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

As I announced in the House on 18 July—[Vol. 970, c. 1791]—we plan to issue later this year a consultative document putting forward and inviting views on our proposals for simplifying the structure and management arrangements of the National Health Service.
