To ask the Secretary of State for Health by what means continuity of patients' notes will be kept between(a) NHS Direct and GPs and (b) walk-in clinics and GPs. [84374]

Walk-in centres will be expected to have links with local general practitioners' practices to ensure continuity of care for patients. For NHS Direct, national guidance will be issued in due course.
