MP tells PM ‘we need to get on with Shropshire A&E rejig’ to avoid opponents 'trashing' it
Shrewsbury MP Daniel Kawczynski has been pressing the Prime Minister over what he says is the importance of plans to re-shape Shropshire's hospital services – and the need to start work before a general election.
Mr Kawczynski, Shrewsbury & Atcham's Conservative MP, revealed that he has raised the issue of the county's £312m 'Future Fit' hospitals transformation project with Rishi Sunak, when they met in the Prime Minister's office.
The MP said he spoke about the need to commence the work, which affects Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) and Princess Royal Hospital (PRH) in Telford – both run by Shrewsbury & Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH).
Mr Kawczynski said he wanted to see work begin before any potential general election – so there is no chance of the project being cancelled by political opponents.
