Proceeding contribution from Lord Stoddart of Swindon (Independent Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 24 April 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill.


Health Bill

I am extremely sorry to keep noble Lords on this point, but the Minister clearly believes that because the House of Commons has passed this on a free vote, that is an end to the matter. He seems to be saying, ““Lords, sit down, shut up; this is nothing to do with you. The House of Commons has decided, and the Bill must go through. No matter what you say””—
