George Eustice's statement following the recent news of the passing of Queen Elizabeth II:
"The death of Her Majesty the Queen is a moment of great sorrow for our country. During her seventy years as monarch, she gave enormous service and commitment to the nation, fulfilling a pledge she made when just 21. She was a constant presence in our national life as so much else changed and she was revered around the world. My thoughts and prayers are with His Majesty the King, His Royal Highness Prince William, who now becomes the Duke of Cornwall, and the whole wider Royal Family."
Last week I visited Camborne Redruth Hospital and the Urgent Treatment Centre at Redruth to see the new ward that is currently under construction and meet some of the fantastic NHS staff doing great work at the UTC to help take the pressure off Treliske and local GPs surgeries.
