Jeremy Hunt apologises for operation delays
Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt has apologised to patients in England affected by a decision to postpone tens of thousands of operations in January.
It came after hospitals reported they were struggling to cope with the surge in patients being seen since Christmas.
Mr Hunt told the World at One "it's not the standard of care that we want to deliver".
