Doctor Joseph Obi | The NHS Reform Debate Goes Nuclear ! | Britain's Top Clinical Heavyweights Publicly Rebel Against Embattled UK Health Secretary.
As previously requested ,(during multiple instances), Professor Obi ethcially requests Everyone , (on all Political Floors of the Highly Charged Arena) , to Fully Respect other Participants Opinions ; irrespective of Irreconcilable Differences.
Sir ,
In the light of the huge public and political concern about the government proposal to restructure the NHS, we find it astonishing that the government persists in their refusal to publish the risk register which would enable the public to understand the potential hazards that the health and social care bill presents.
This is the largest and most complex piece of legislation since the foundation of the NHS and it is incumbent on the government to share with the public the calculated risks.
We call on the government to publish the risk register forthwith.
