Serco, the private contractor that falsified its NHS data in Cornwall, is looking to pass on its troubled GP out-of-hours service in the county to a subcontractor. The Guardian has learned that Serco has been in talks with the NHS to hand delivery of the service to Devon Doctors, a not-for-profit enterprise run by GPs in neighbouring Devon.
Margaret Hodge, chair of the parliamentary accounts committee (PAC), which held an inquiry into Serco's performance in Cornwall earlier this year, described the move to offload the contract as outrageous.
