The targets examined are: the four-hour A&amp;E target; the 18-week target for a hospital bed (inpatient treatment); the 18-week target for an outpatient appointment; the six-week target for diagnostic tests; the two-week target for urgent cancer referral; and the 31-day target for cancer treatment.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>End of life care<\/strong><br \/>\nThe House of Commons Health Select Committee has published its fifth report focused on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.publications.parliament.uk\/pa\/cm201415\/cmselect\/cmhealth\/805\/80502.htm\">End of Life Care<\/a>.\u00a0 The Committee looked at the state of end of life care since the independent Review of the Liverpool Care Pathway, and found great variation in quality and practice across both acute and community settings.\u00a0 The report makes a number of recommendations for improvement, and in particular recommends that social care should be free at the end of life.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Inequality across health and social care<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Care Quality Commission (CQC) has published <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cqc.org.uk\/equalmeasures\">Equal measures &#8211; Equality information report for 2014<\/a>.
