That this House pays tribute to Nye Bevan and the radical, reforming Labour governments of 1945 to 1951 for establishing the National Health Service (NHS) on 5th July 1948, thereby removing the fear of ill health from hardworking families; and pays tribute to NHS staff throughout the United Kingdom, who provide health care free at the time of need, 24 hours each day, 365 days of each year.
