Motion Text

That this House notes with concern the Government's plans to introduce polyclinics across the country; believes that in rural areas this is likely to lead to the closure of many small GP practices, leaving many people without easy access to basic health services; and calls upon the Government to review its plans in order to ensure that rural areas are not disadvantaged.
