HC Deb 18 April 1995 vol 258 c122W
Mrs. Beckett

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what criteria she will use for deciding whether or not the London Ambulance Service is fully equipped to provide an improved service for Londoners in relation to the announcement on 4 April on changes to health services in London. [18718]

Mr. Sackville

The London Ambulance Service has recently achieved better response times and considerable improvements have been made to its vehicle fleet and equipment, including 180 new emergency ambulances. The need for further developments and improvements to accommodate the decisions made on changes to London's health services have been identified, and changes planned to ensure a satisfactory standard of service to patients.
