New regime announced for Devon's NHS

Devon's financially struggling health service is to get help from the national NHS and the regulator Monitor.

It's one of three areas chosen to enter what's being called the Success Regime.

That'll involve diagnosis of the problems facing the area, and a senior leader overseeing a programme of action.

The Exeter MP Ben Bradshaw has been keeping up the pressure on the Government over NHS funding - yesterday he told the Commons that action was long overdue.
