HC Deb 25 April 1985 vol 77 c547W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will institute a comprehensive review of primary health care along similar lines to the one over a two-year period being arranged for community nursing services.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The Green Paper on primary health care services, which we expect to publish in the summer, is intended to stimulate an informed debate among the professions and the public. This should provide the necessary background information on which to base decisions about the future of primary health care. We are still considering the question of a review of community nursing services.
