Action not words needed on personal NHS budgets - Lamb
31 Mar 2008
Responding to the news that the Government is considering personal NHS budgets, Liberal Democrat Shadow Health Secretary, Norman Lamb said:
"The debate over personal care budgets for chronic conditions has gone on for a long time. Personal care budgets have been a success in social care, and could be the same in the NHS when dealing with long-term conditions.
"But the Government must get on with giving patients and their families control, rather than endlessly talking about it."
