Proceeding contribution from Sandra Gidley (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.


Health Bill

I understand the possible drivers for persuading applicants to offer extra services, which must be a good thing for patients. However, it is difficult to balance the offer of a low price on medicines against those other services. The consideration should not be purely financial. Although the provision of other services is worthy and could benefit the local health economy, merely to consider the price of medicines seems a step too far.
