NHS Funding Bill

Proceeding contribution from Helen Hayes (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 January 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on NHS Funding Bill.

King’s College Hospital in my constituency has the largest level of debt of any hospital trust in the country. That debt has come about because of the policies of the coalition Government and then the Conservative Government over the past 10 years, yet there is no investment for King’s in the Secretary of State’s list of hospitals receiving capital investment, and no proposal to write off the unsustainable level of debt. What message am I to take back to the hard-working, life-saving staff at King’s College Hospital who are currently struggling in impossible financial circumstances?
