I understand where you're coming from mike, but at the end of the day the
amounts we have to pay out often come at lest partially from our own
pockets, so it is ultimately a business. Imagine if you lost 10% of your
salary, you might well get concerned if it was wasted. :(

For goodness sake, can't we accept that the NHS is NOT a
business!!! I accept that the NHS spends a lot of public purse
money, and that it must therefore act in some respects in a business
like way, in the sense of maintaining proper accountability and
control of resources. However there is a wide margin between
behaving with due prudence, and as a policy decision erecting a
wholly unnecessary barrier between a valuable service and those who
wish to access that service via a different route.
