Access to primary and community health care (Supplementary) [2]
- Question by: Joanne McCartney
- Meeting date: 18 June 2014
Joanne McCartney AM: I was just going to pick up on something you said earlier, that when we are changing any aspect of the health system it is essential that we build the trust and confidence of the public and patients. We have all been out supporting our local hospitals that are at risk of closure, and it is very emotive when you talk about changing healthcare provision. I know from my experience of ChaseFarm, for example, that one of the requirements of the Independent Reconfiguration Panel was that primary care and access to primary and community care had to...

- Meeting date: 18 June 2014
Murad Qureshi AM: I am just going to bring up issues around the A&E services in London. Is not the ongoing all-year crisis with A&E services in London good evidence that we need pan-London leadership to get the situation under control?

So, again, no intervention; the Board did not rewrite it, ask you to pull your punches or whatever?

Therefore if you are looking at questions of the inner workings of organisations you might have funded in the past, you simply do not have the powers to investigate those to the extent that the allegations would suggest you might need to or might want to, or a third party might want to?

Just for the record, what formally are those roles that you fulfil, then? You are an accountant, I believe, but also you are the Financial Officer and that is defined in statute. Is that right?

I have a number of housekeeping questions: the first one, which I think follows very neatly from Peter Hulme Cross's intervention, is, can you confirm, Mr Travers, that you are a Statutory Officer and that you have trade and professional qualifications as well which require you to act with integrity and not to be nobbled by the Board or other officers of the LDA?

Can you confirm then that the report that was issued is substantially, other than maybe a few housekeeping issues that might have emerged, the one that was presented to the Board on the Friday morning? I believe that is the case.

I do not have any problem with the entirety. Just to clarify ' I think this has been clarified fairly well ' but the question of referrals to the police is because, when serious allegations are made ' and of course people making serious allegations have a serious responsibility to reflect on the seriousness of the allegations they are making ' the LDA is not a detective agency itself. You can confirm that it is not a detective agency?

I might as well declare that I was the Chair of the Audit Committee of the LDA for a couple of years. I am very happy for that to be a matter of record as well; we did some very good work there. The District Audit is an independent service. There are of course two sides to this because politicians the world over use it as a foil for their political battles, but anyone in this Chamber, or indeed any member of the public, has a perfect right to contact the District Audit Service and to ask them to look...
