CHARING CROSS HOSPITAL

Early day motion 372, tabled 20 June 2005 by Greg Hands (Conservative). Signed by 14 members.

That this House expresses concern at reports that Charing Cross Hospital faces closure or severe downsizing; notes the hospital's three-star clinical record; recognises that the hospital is a global leader in cancer care, vascular surgery, neurosurgery, plastic surgery and many other fields; further notes that the hospital is the major trauma centre for West London; believes that any transfer of services to Hammersmith Hospital would be detrimental to patient terms of accessibility; and calls on the Government to take action to ensure the continued provision of all current services on the current Charing Cross Hospital site.
