Hospitals: Reorganisation

Mr. Dismore
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what progress is being made on the reconfiguration of services between Barnet and Chase Farm Hospitals; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Mike O'Brien
Steps have been taken to implement the Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Clinical Strategy, part of which involves the reconfiguration of services at Barnet and Chase Farm hospitals. Most of the Independent Review Panel's recommendations have been implemented, with implementation of the rest already under way.
