Launch an independent review into future health & care needs & how to meet them

Closed 53 signatures

What the petition asks

There seems to be no adequate plan to address the crisis in health & social care. The Government should commission an independent review to: identify the country's future health & care needs, and, to develop costed options to meet them. This could inform the Government, Parliament and the public.
The issues are complex, solutions potentially expensive. Politicians seem unable or unwilling to take the necessary action to address the future challenges. We believe a truly independent review, with appropriate input from stakeholders, offers the best chance that decisions about health and care would be made in an informed and honest way, reflect the real challenges and great opportunities of the future, and meet peoples' desires and expectations.
