Melbourne Declaration on Diabetes — [Dr William McCrea in the Chair] (18 Jun 2014)

Jamie Reed: It is, as usual, a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Dr McCrea, and it is a pleasure to follow the hon. Members for Torbay (Mr Sanders) and for Strangford (Jim Shannon). The hon. Member for Torbay, in particular, has been making a superb contribution across this entire policy area for many years. As someone who is also “blessed” with type 1 diabetes, I look to him for...

Bill Presented — Social Action, Responsibility and Heroism Bill: The Economy and Living Standards (12 Jun 2014)

Jamie Reed: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker.

Oral Answers to Questions — Health: One-year Cancer Survival Rates (10 Jun 2014)

Jamie Reed: Last month, for the first time ever the NHS missed a target for beginning cancer treatment within 62 days of patients being urgently referred. Cancer Research UK stated: “This isn’t just a missed target—some patients are being failed,”. We know that the key to ensuring that more people survive cancer is to start treatment as soon as possible after diagnosis. Is it not shocking that...

Health ( 9 Jun 2014)

Jamie Reed: Will the Minister give way?

Health ( 9 Jun 2014)

Jamie Reed: I always enjoy the hon. Gentleman’s emollient Dr Jekyll, in contrast to the Secretary of State’s Mr Hyde. Will he be following the Crosby diktat and keeping his head down and his mouth shut about the Government’s record on the NHS between now and the general election, or will the Liberal Democrats be doing something rather different?

Business without Debate: Clause 48 — Provision of “care and support services” (12 May 2014)

Jamie Reed: I will make some progress. The only way to build sustainable services is to have widespread ownership of changes and a robust process of community engagement. The Government’s disfigurement of the TSA process will mean that they have to give no regard to patients’ wishes, and in practice it will mean that they can disregard the views of local commissioners. If the Secretary of State wants...

Business without Debate: Clause 48 — Provision of “care and support services” (12 May 2014)

Jamie Reed: Our amendments to Lords amendments 40B and 40C are designed to protect patients, improve transparency and decision making, and ensure that health service reconfigurations do not result in a restriction of access to services for patients. I give notice that I wish to press amendments (a) and (b) to Lords amendment 40B to a vote. This is probably the final piece of health legislation that will...

Business without Debate: Clause 48 — Provision of “care and support services” (12 May 2014)

Jamie Reed: My hon. Friend is entirely right, and the Lords amendments will only make that situation worse. Now, as this zombie Parliament limps towards the finishing line, we are asked to consider a Frankenstein Bill—a badly stitched together Bill—which began with good intentions, but which, for the most part, will not end well. The Care Bill should have remained just that. On the face of it, part...

Business without Debate: Clause 48 — Provision of “care and support services” (12 May 2014)

Jamie Reed: Indeed. My hon. Friend knows about these issues in detail. That is why we have asked the questions that we asked and tabled our amendment on Report. With reference to parts 2 and 3 of the Bill, the insertion of the hospital closure clause—the Lewisham clause, clause 119, formerly clause 118, call it what you like—is extremely regrettable. It is because of this that the comparison with...

[Mr Dai Havard in the Chair] — Type 1 Diabetes (Young People) (30 Apr 2014)

Jamie Reed: Is the Minister aware of the JDRF’s “#CountMeIn” campaign? It is calling for an investment of £12 million per annum by the MRC and NIHR to bring the UK in line with recent per capita spending by Governments internationally. Has he given any thought to that and if so will he comment on it?

[Mr Dai Havard in the Chair] — Type 1 Diabetes (Young People) (30 Apr 2014)

Jamie Reed: I, too, thank my right hon. Friend the Member for Knowsley (Mr Howarth). I know how much this means to him and his family. I am genuinely grateful for all the work that he does in this regard. This is a vitally important debate. We have had a tremendous debate today, involving hon. Members from all parties, providing us with a brief opportunity to deal with important issues that have stood...

Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister: Engagements ( 2 Apr 2014)

Jamie Reed: At a time of unprecedented crisis, the Prime Minister saw at first hand just how good the West Cumberland hospital in my constituency can be. Six years into a rebuilding programme, that hospital has been plunged into crisis, is being starved of staff and faces being stripped of key clinical services. The nearest hospital is not just down the road—it is 42 miles away in Carlisle, and that,...

Oral Answers to Questions — Health: Out-of-hospital Care ( 1 Apr 2014)

Jamie Reed: GP access is a crucial element of out-of-hospital care, and the British Medical Association today said that the damage caused by this Government to the NHS has been “profound and intense”. Last week, the Royal College of General Practitioners said that more than a quarter of us now wait more than a week for an appointment with our family doctor. Within days of taking office, Ministers...

Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister: European Council and Nuclear Security Summit (26 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: I welcome the Prime Minister’s statement and the answer that he gave earlier that related to my constituency. Away from diplomatic processes and soft power, our efforts on nuclear security must be underpinned by an effective plutonium disposition strategy. We have the potential to lead the world in that regard. To that end, will the Prime Minister commit to fully funding and commissioning...

[Sir Edward Leigh in the Chair] — NHS Funding (Ageing) (25 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: It is a pleasure, Sir Edward, to speak under your chairmanship again, although I am afraid I am not a brother knight.

[Sir Edward Leigh in the Chair] — NHS Funding (Ageing) (25 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: I am even more afraid that it is a fraternity I will never be invited to join. I thank the hon. Member for Suffolk Coastal (Dr Coffey) for securing this timely debate and for her opening remarks. Particular thanks should go to Government Whips for drafting so much of it. As she knows, the last Labour Government took a malnourished, failing NHS with an annual budget of approximately £30...

[Sir Edward Leigh in the Chair] — NHS Funding (Ageing) (25 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: I thank the hon. Lady for her intervention. I am not sure that I agree with her. Not for the first time today—I am not laying this singularly at her feet; she knows that I have great respect for her—we have heard the argument that I hear frequently from Government Members about there somehow being an enemy within. That does not deserve significant air time in this Chamber or on any other...

[Sir Edward Leigh in the Chair] — NHS Funding (Ageing) (25 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: I will come on to that question. The funding formula on its own is a blunt tool that will struggle to address intricacies within a health economy as varied as the one in England and, therefore, more needs to be done at the interface between medic and patient to improve care for older people. Funding is crucial, but financial pressures mean that we have to use existing funding more...

Royal Assent: Backbench Business — Badger Cull (13 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: While I have the Floor, I am sure that colleagues across the House would like to congratulate pupils from West Lakes academy in my constituency on sending a balloon into space this morning—quite an achievement. It is called Project Space Eye if anyone would like to look it up. As the Member of Parliament for England’s most remotely accessible constituency from Westminster, I am proud to...

Oral Answers to Questions — Treasury: New Clause 6 — Secretary of State’s response to a section 65 regulator’s report on an NHS foundation trust (11 Mar 2014)

Jamie Reed: When this was tested in the High Court, the judge said that the Government were seeking to use the powers that the right hon. Gentleman has just described for a “strained and unnatural” purpose. Does he agree with that?
