Health and Social Care Act 2012



This Act passed by the government will enable Clinical Commission Groups to do the following

  • ·        Decide what is free and when to charge for care

  • ·        Challenge any public policy that might reduce profitability

  • ·        Pass on unprofitable Services requirement’s to Local councils

  • ·        Contract out all NHS Services to private providers

  • ·        Decide who is (and isn’t) entitled to free health care

  • ·        Underspend on patient care in order to pay shareholders

  • ·        Pay Private companies to do there commission work

We urge all members to write to their MP and put the question which way you voted? when this was passed.  We would further suggest if your MP voted in favour or abstained or could not be bothered to turn up unless there was a very good reason contact us with the response and we will publish it.
