HL Deb 09 March 1989 vol 504 c1690WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will publish the evidence on the basis of which the recent White Paper on the National Health Service (Cmnd. 555) was published.

Lord Henley

The White Paper,Working for Patients, was the product of an internal review of government policy. A number of submissions were received from individuals and interested bodies, but no formal evidence was invited and the Government do not propose to publish the material submitted.
