motion: <p class="indent" pid="c430.3/6" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;We will reinstate the powers of the Secretary of State for Health to have overall responsibility for the NHS.&#8221;</p>
  
  <p class="indent" pid="c432.2/2" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Health and Care Bill, notwithstanding the need for a plan for greater integration between health services and social care services and for restrictions on junk food advertising to improve population health outcomes, because the Bill represents a top down reorganisation in a pandemic leading to a loss of local accountability, fails to reform social care, allows further outsourcing permitting the private sector to sit on local boards and fails to reinstate the NHS as the default provider, fails to introduce a plan to bring down waiting lists for routine NHS treatment or tackle the growing backlog of care, fails to put forward plans to increase the size of the NHS workforce and see them better supported, and fails to put forward a plan that would give the NHS the resources it needs to invest in modern equipment, repair the crumbling NHS estate or ensure comprehensive, quality healthcare.&#8221;</p>

  <p class="indent" pid="c454.1/3" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;We have been working so closely for a number of years with colleagues across the health service and our broader partners. Genuinely, I think this is unusual, if not unique, in having come from the NHS as a series of asks to Parliament rather than something that Parliament is perhaps imposing on the NHS.&#8221;</p>
  
  <p class="indent" pid="c455.0/4" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;If the UK is to tackle inequalities and make sure no community is left behind&#8230;then health must be hardwired into the Government&#8217;s &#8216;levelling up&#8217; agenda.&#8221;</p>

  <p class="indent" pid="c471.0/12" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;The way that the NHS does workforce planning is at best opaque and at worst responsible for the unacceptable pressure on the current workforce which existed even before the pandemic.&#8221;</p>
  
  <p class="indent" pid="c471.0/15" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;Previous changes have tinkered with one piece of the NHS or another, when what was needed was comprehensive modernisation to create an NHS fit for the demands of the 21st century.
