Hammersmith Hospital/Imperial College Imaging Department

HC Deb 21 July 2000 vol 354 c368W

Mrs. Gillan

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will publish the report on the Hammersmith Hospital/Imperial College Imaging Department commissioned by the former Secretary of State for Health, the right hon. Member for Holborn and St. Pancras (Mr. Dobson); what plans he has to implement the recommendations contained in this report; and if he will make a statement. [131970]

Mr. Denham

Professor Cameron's report was prepared on the basis that it would be confidential to Ministers. He has, however, provided a comprehensive summary of his findings, conclusions and recommendations and this has been made public.

I announced on 29 June that I had accepted Professor Cameron's recommendations and was instructing the National Health Service Executive to implement them.

Professor Cameron's report draws a line under these events: no further ministerial statement is planned.
