Proceeding contribution from Lord Lansley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.
Health Bill
I fear that the Secretary of State has not answered the perfectly reasonable question asked by the hon. Member for Sutton and Cheam (Mr. Burstow). The essence of the question, which we have asked Ministers time and again, is this: will the Secretary of State give a simple guarantee that when, after a suitable risk assessment, infection control teams in a hospital recommend that beds or wards should be closed for infection control purposes, they will not be overruled in pursuit of waiting time targets?
