Ian Sollom MP responds to King’s Speech

Responding to the King’s Speech, Liberal Democrat MP for St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire, Ian Sollom said:

“I welcome laws to bring about tougher regulation of water companies and address the paucity of our mental health services, particularly for young people which I will be looking for more detail on from the Government soon.

“However, I’m disappointed not to see more action to tackle the top concern of many in St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire and across the country at the recent general election: the desperate need to improve our health services and transform social care.

“Too many years of neglect under the Conservatives have left too many people struggling to see a GP when they need to, or even register with an NHS dentist.

“Growth in our area has exacerbated this national crisis, and I will be challenging ministers to do more. People in St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire cannot wait any longer.”
