NHS England: Staff Costs

Contribution

My Lords, to come back to the Question from the noble Lord, Lord Scriven, about an impact assessment, does the Minister think it might be a good idea to do an impact assessment of NHS England itself, which both the parties opposite forced through in 2011, at a cost of £3.5 billion? As a result, waiting times increased, staff disenchantment increased and patient satisfaction went down. Should we not have an impact assessment on that?
