Proceeding contribution from Lord Stoddart of Swindon (Independent Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill.


Health Bill

I am sorry to come back on this but, in giving us that information, can the Minister detail how the 57,000 figure was arrived at? For example, if the department received a petition with 17,500 names on it, is that included as 17,500 names or one petition? I also want to know whether FOREST was actually consulted about it and, if so, how. What were its responses? Also, did the responses include responses by email or through websites? It is important that we should know what consultation took place, which organisations and people were asked for their views, how they gave them, and exactly what scientific analysis was made of those responses.
