i think the hutton report is a good report, and this is not about attacking or downgrading public sector pensions. it is about a way of making really good public sector pensions respecting all of the accord rights that people have, and i think we need to win the argument on the basis of fairness and that is right for the taxpayer to put money into the public sector pension, but we need to know that it is affordable in the long terms of the steps that were cut and puts forward are right. we need to take a responsible view and recognize that we need to make a change for the long- term good of our country. >> thank you, mr. speaker. months ago, one of my constituents had to have knee surgery and was pleased to hear he only had to wait some number of weeks. now, he has to have another surgery, and has been told he has to wait 10 months. he is understandably angry. is this what the prime minister meant? >> if she gives an individual case, i will certainly take it up and look at it. we have not changed the targets. in particular, the 18 week target which is part of the nhs constitution. averag
