§ Dr. FoxTo ask the Secretary of State for Health how many bureaucracy-busting champions have been appointed as part of the Government's anti-bureaucracy drive; and where they are located. [129588]
§ Mr. HuttonNo new appointments have been made as a result of this initiative. Each strategic health authority has identified an existing senior member of staff who will be responsible for ensuring that action is taken locally to reduce the burden placed on front-line national health service staff. This will complement the action already being taken by the Department.
