Health and Care Bill

Proceeding contribution from Edward Argar (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Health and Care Bill.

I will make a little progress, then I will give way to the hon. Lady, as I tend to do. She is a regular participant in health debates.

We are already committed to improving workforce planning. In July 2021, as I said, we commissioned that important work with partners to review long-term strategic trends. It is also important to note in that context that my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State announced that we are merging NHS England and Health Education England, which is a hugely important move that brings together the workforce planning and the provision of places and of new members of the workforce with the

funding available for that and the understanding of what is needed in the workforce. It brings supply and demand considerations together.
