It will be considering written evidence from individuals and organizations, as well as hearing the views of a reference group of 57 organizations. Sir Stewart Sutherland, chair of the commission, is keen to stress that the tour is not merely a public relations exercise.

Article Abstract:

Plans to establish a separate Greater London Authority to oversee services in the London area could have repercussions on the running of health services trusts throughout the UK. The GLA will have no initial control over the health of people in London but if the new governing body proves successful it may result in central government granting powers relating to health provision to the new authority.
