Following the meeting Mr Soames said; “I am pleased that JHOSC have accepted the strongly worded points of Jonathan Teasdale of the Support the Princess Royal Hospital Campaign and myself and have added the following key recommendation”;

“That the Committee is not persuaded of the safety/desirability of only one consultant-led maternity unit in West Sussex (especially with the changes in East Sussex), and would prefer to see the retention of a second consultant-led unit north of the South Downs, at Princess Royal Hospital.”
