Diana Coman wants NHS money to go to front-line services and not wasteful bureaucracy.

A comprehensive survey into Merton's local health services has been launched by the Liberal Democrats.

Mitcham & Morden Parliamentary candidate Diana Coman said:

"I am keen to hear how the health service is supporting residents of Mitcham and Morden. There is no doubt that this Labour Government reversed nearly two decades of Conservative under-funding of the health service, but I am not convinced that the money has been spent wisely.

"Improvements in medical care are being made all the time and I want to see this community reaping the benefits of those improvements. That means we must ensure that money goes to front-line services and not to wasteful bureaucracy.

"To help me campaign effectively on your behalf I need your views and experiences. That is why I've launched the survey."
