I do not accept what my hon. Friend has said. As a result of our investment and reforms, we are already delivering substantially improved services to patients—to my hon. Friend's constituents, and to the public throughout the country. But my hon. Friend and I have been re-elected on the 2005 manifesto in which we promised to continue the programme of investment and reform, and to continue selective use of the independent and private sector where that would help us to secure better services for patients. That is what we are doing, and I hope that my hon. Friend will continue to support it.
