"Years behind schedule, loathed by doctors and unlikely ever to
function properly, the £12bn upgrade of the NHS IT system could yet
overtake the 2012 Olympics as the most expensive turkey in British
history. According to yesterday's bitterly critical report on the
project by the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee, the final
cost could hit £20bn."

£2bn is enough to pay the wage-bill of 10,000 extra nurses for a
decade.
More staff, less consultants please Mr Blair!!
