HC Deb 12 February 2002 vol 380 c141W
5. Mr. Baron

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland when she intends to meet health ministers from the UK Government and the devolved Administrations to discuss NHS waiting lists. [32336]

Mrs. Liddell

I have regular discussions with UK Ministers and Scottish Ministers on a wide range of issues. Last autumn, on my behalf, my hon. and learned Friend the Advocate-General attended the Joint Ministerial Committee on Health, when a variety of issues were discussed. However, NHS waiting lists in Scotland are a devolved matter for the Scottish Executive.
