 * Merge in to South East Coast Ambulance Service - I can't find anything at all to verify its existence, I assume this was short lived ?, Anyway Merge seems better than deletion IMHO. – Davey 2010 Talk 14:29, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep. Nomination is based on the flawed arguments that the article was "abandoned" (no, it's a WP:STUB, perfectly acceptable) and that the organisation no longer exists (so what?). This was the statutory public ambulance service for two counties with a total population of about 1.5 million people. Any emergency service covering a jurisdiction that size is notable. This nomination really doesn't make a lot of sense. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:21, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep per Necrothesp. Have added refs for start and end dates. Article could doubtless be expanded further should anyone care to make the effort. -Arb. (talk) 20:01, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I agree with the assessment provided by Necrothesp. Although the organisation was in existence for only a little over 10 years, it was a statutory provider and over that period of time there were a lot of changes to the way services were run. I have added some further information about the service to the article, supported by appropriate references. Drchriswilliams (talk) 03:17, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
 * These improvements probably mean it's worth keeping. But it seems unlikely that anyone will do any more work on it.  It's quite difficult to find information about NHS organisations that have been abolished.Rathfelder (talk) 23:31, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
