NHS WALK-IN CENTRES

Early day motion 662, tabled 6 January 2015 by David Crausby (Labour). Signed by 45 members.

That this House believes that it is unacceptable to shut accident and emergency (A&E) departments when patients have nowhere else to seek treatment; notes that NHS walk-in centres played a major role in reducing the numbers of patients attending A&E; and calls on the Government to encourage clinical commissioning groups right across the country to reintroduce walk-in centres.
