Health Services (Gloucestershire)

I did not mean to dismiss the hon. Gentleman’s concern about his constituents’ drive times and accept his point. My point is that the percentage increase in drive times is probably greater from within the urban areas. When I asked the chief executive of the NHS trust about second children—my second child was born within minutes of getting through the doors of St. Paul’s—and whether my child would have been born on the A40, he said that nature will take its course. Does the hon. Gentleman think that alarming?
