Sir Nicholas’s question to Jon Ashworth MP, Shadow Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, in a Debate on NHS Outsourcing and Privatisation.
I am very grateful to the hon. Gentleman for giving way. I know him to be a good man. May I put this to him? None of these figures or statistics means anything to people wanting treatment on the NHS. May I assure him that my constituents, like his, are not over-concerned where their treatment comes from? What they are concerned about is that they should be competently, effectively and caringly treated under the national health service.
