Speaking in the House of Lords on 8 September 2026

Debate

Integrated Care Boards: Access to Services

Contribution

My Lords, do we think that the ICBs will have a problem? We know that they have a fragmented IT service as well as terrific work overload, and I believe that they are going to go down from 46 boards to 26. Surely this will cause them a problem in being able to get the access they need. It is a real worry for them and, I would think, even more so for the patients and their families who are trying to access primary and community services.
