« View all Press Statements
Responding to the recent publication of the House of Lords Select Committee report on the Long-term Sustainability of the NHS, Professor Michael Lavelle-Jones, President of The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, said:
“This report is an important contribution to the discussion necessary to enable us to create a sustainable NHS. Whilst the Five Year Forward View is to be commended, it is only right that we look beyond 2020 and start to undertake the long term planning that will help bring about a high quality health service, as the report suggests. It is also crucial that funding is increased in a way that reflects growing demand but also provides certainty for those planning for the future.”
