"Working for Patients"

HC Deb 17 March 1989 vol 149 c384W

Mr. Hannam

To ask the Secretary of State for Health to whom responses to the White Paper, "Working for Patients" from organisations representing patients should be sent; and by what date they should be sent.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

Each working paper gives the name and address of a contact point in the Department. Where proposals depend on primary legislation the necessary discussions with interested parties need to be completed by May 1989.

Mr. Kennedy

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what representations he has received from rural general practitioners since the publication of the White Paper, "Working for Patients."

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

We have received a very small number of representations from individual GPs.
