Agreeing with the Lib Dems
I have to apologise because I find myself agreeing with the Lib Dems. This time it is Cambridge MP David Howarth who has called for the scrapping of Strategic Health Authorities (apparently the 8 Board Members of the Eastern Region SHA Cost the taxpayer over £900k).
He is absolutely right. During my time doing Health Scrutiny at the County Council we questioned the SHA a number of times and failed to work out what their job is - apart from taking money in from the Government and dishing it out - Government could easily just cut out the middle man and distribute the cash itself.
Come the blue revolution the SHAs and the Transport Commissioners should be the first against the wall.
