Stephen Dorrell is a Conservative MP and former Secretary of State for Health. He was chair of the Health Select Committee from 2010 until June 2014.
His views are seen as an important guide to Tory thinking on the NHS, reflecting a strong belief in the power of markets, choice and competition to produce benefits for patients.[1]
Contents
Revolving door and conflict of interest controversy
In November 2014, just months after resigning from the powerful Health Select Committee, Dorrell announced he would quit parliament at the 2015 election due to his taking up a new job as a health consultant at Big Four firm KPMG. He is working three days a week for them from December 2014 but intends to remain an MP until the election.
The announcement prompted calls for his resignation as an MP but despite acknowledging the incompatability of combining public service with working for KPMG, who are planning on bidding for a £1 billion NHS contract, [2] [3] Dorrell has not stepped down.
In 2010 Dorrell was ranked as the fifth most powerful person in healthcare and in 2011 as the fourth by the Health Service Journal.[4]
