Oral Answers to Questions

Rishi Sunak Excerpts

Tuesday 4th July 2017 Commons Chamber

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health (Jackie Doyle-Price)]

I would be happy to agree to such a meeting, and I know this issue has support on both sides of the House.

[Rishi Sunak (Richmond (Yorks)) (Con)]

T8. Last week I met doctors and nurses at the Friarage, an excellent small hospital serving a rural population spread over 1,000 square miles. Will my right hon. Friend urge South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust to do everything it can to ensure the continued provision of emergency care clinicians and anaesthetists at this vital local hospital?

[Mr Dunne]

I am aware that my hon. Friend has taken a strong interest in the number of consultants and anaesthetists available at the Friarage hospital. I will be happy to meet him to discuss his concerns in person.
