Text

On that last point, officials have assured me that exceptional care and a lot of time are taken to try to meet the individual needs of patients when they are being resettled, but I look forward to starting the conversations on the other side, as it were, by talking to families immediately after this session. I referred in my statement to a health summit. I inform Members that there is one more public inquiry report to come: I believe that Christine Smith KC will publish her report on urology on Wednesday. I expect that that will also be a blow to the Health and Social Care system. That is the last of the current series of public inquiries, so that will be an appropriate time at which to call that health summit, where we will have the leadership across HSC in one room and I will have the opportunity to say to them, "Enough's enough. The line is drawn. Be human. Deliver care compassionately. Stop the scandals. Do your job".
