Stuart Andrew (Pudsey, Conservative)
To ask the Secretary of State for Health whether the Independent Reconfiguration Panel (IRP) review of the Safe and Sustainable Review of Children's Congenital Heart Services will be undertaken by a subgroup of the IRP; and what the membership will be of that subgroup.

Anna Soubry (Broxtowe, Conservative)
This is a matter for the Independent Reconfiguration Panel (IRP). As my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Health has asked the IRP to undertake a review of the Safe and Sustainable Review of Children's Congenital Heart Services, it is now for the IRP, as an independent body, to determine how it will undertake its review.
