The Government's White Paper ‘The new NHS’ was only published in December 1997, so discussions about the future shape of our health services are still at an early stage. However, it is important to keep in touch with what is happening and to ensure that discussion about the maternity services happens at an appropriate stage and indeed that maternity services are on the ‘agenda.’ I am sure that most midwives feel confident that their own Head of Midwifery will be participating in discussions and will be consulted about future change.
