England's health and social care watchdog requires substantial overhaul and is currently inadequate, according to Health Secretary Wes Streeting, who has promised swift measures to regain public trust. Mr Streeting was reacting to an independent review into the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the body that monitors and inspects all health and adult social care providers. The review highlighted major internal deficiencies within the CQC that hinder its capability to detect substandard performance in hospitals, care homes, and GP practices. Report by Covellm.

His first priority will always be the country," Mr Streeting said. Report by Kennedyl. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
Labour say they will reform the primary care system to ensure patients can get GP appointments and GPs can get jobs. Shadow Health Secretary said the situation would be improved under a Labour government training up more doctors, reducing bureaucracy for GPs and increasing funding into the system.
