A private members bill, which aims to limit NHS 'privatisation', has cleared its first
parliamentary hurdle. Under the bill, compulsory tendering for NHS
contracts would be prevented and the income generated by private patients for NHS
hospitals would be restricted.
The bill is
supported by UKIP MP Mark Reckless, who stated: "I am guilty of having
believed the undertakings I was given by those on the government
frontbench" about the NHS reforms.
