Health unions: Tory 10 year plan is far too little, too late
THE government’s new 10-year plan for the NHS can’t make up for nine years of “disastrous” mismanagement, according to health unions.
Prime Minister Theresa May has promised that the plan, which looks set to be launched today by NHS England, will be a “historic step” for the health service.
The plan is expected to focus on ensuring all money spent on the system benefits patients.
