HC Deb 04 May 1999 vol 330 c350W
Mr. Keetch

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he has any plans to introduce a chief officer rank for the Ambulance Service; and if he will make a statement. [80260]

Mr. Hutton

Ambulance service ranks, including the title of chief officer, are matters for individual ambulance National Health Service trusts. There are no plans to alter this.
