Labour — Bournemouth East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 December 2024

Debate

National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill

Contribution

I agree that there needs to be reform of the NHS alongside this investment, and I welcome the point that the hon. Gentleman is making. In a recent speech, the Secretary of State set out what some of those reforms could be; I would welcome hearing what the hon. Gentleman thinks the reforms to go alongside the investment ought to be. Would he acknowledge, too, that one of the reasons why the NHS was in such a difficult position when dealing with the pandemic was that it was starved of funding and left under-prepared?
