Title: NHS charges - Parliament discussions.

Charges at hospitals for parking, phones etc - 49p per min incoming gets some 'stick', although Patientline not specifically mentioned.

Keeps up the pressure, I suppose.

Seems like a good time to float the '0870 Protest Day' to our journalist contacts - they might be looking for follow-ups?

Unfortunate that the international crisis in Lebanon cut right into the reporting of the 'home' news, so not a lot of coverage on TV.
Agree that it might be good to set the 0870Protest Day in motion, though.
