Motion text

That this House welcomes the public consultation exercise being conducted as part of a process to create the UK's first Children's Health Park centred on Alder Hey Hospital in Liverpool, also called the Royal Liverpool Children's Hospital; believes that this new project will ensure the continued provision of the full range of acute and chronic paediatric treatment facilities to a world class standard, in a caring and inspiring environment and serving a population that encompasses the whole of Merseyside and parts of Lancashire, Cheshire, Shropshire and Cumbria, as well as North Wales and the Isle of Man; celebrates, as its centenary approaches in 2014, the important role Alder Hey has played in pioneering groundbreaking medical and clinical developments in the care of children and young people; notes that despite continuing to use many buildings over 75 years old, with some dating back to Alder Hey's previous existence as a workhouse, the medical, nursing and administrative staff perform heroically; and calls on the Secretary of State for Health to ensure Alder Hey's vision for a 21st century health facility for the children of Liverpool and the North West of England is realised.
