• Moves by a Merseyside health trust to axe the number of school nurses by up to half have come under fire in the Commons. Labour MPs are furious over proposals by St Helens and Knowsley Community Health Trust to slash £80,000 from its school nurse budget. The decision threatens to reduce the number of posts by up to 16 from a total of 34. Knowsley North Labour member George Howarth says the trust must think again and reverse its proposals.
