Motion to Walsall Council regarding the NHS

by danielbarker on 7 January, 2019

One of the motions (which we are supporting) to be discussed at tonight’s full council meeting reads as follows:

This Council:
(1) celebrates the fact that 70 years ago Parliament created a National Health Service, essentially free at the point of delivery
(2) accordingly seeks to maintain those benefits in this Borough
(3) resolves to write to the Secretary of State and to local MPs asking that the Government
– works with those in all parties to find a way of resolving the NHS’s continuing cash crisis
– makes up the funding gap in social care identified by the Local Government Association
– publishes a White Paper outlining the Government’s intentions for integrating and funding health and social care provision in the future
– provides adequate funding for mental health care in Walsall
– takes appropriate steps to protect community pharmacies in Walsall

If you are interested in this issue and want to see how each party votes upon this motion, please come along tonight. The meeting starts at 6.
