Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 March 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

It is very important that we have really tough regulation for private residential care homes. I can remember when there was almost no regulation at all, and we had to bring it in to protect people. There were protests from Conservatives, saying that it was red tape, but protecting vulnerable people in residential care is an absolute priority and we want to ensure that the regulations do that proportionately and effectively.
