Proceeding contribution from Lord Warner (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

There will be a full consultation. My memory is that the normal Cabinet Office rule is a three-month consultation. People are nodding their heads behind me to say that that will be the drill. I see that there are strongly held views on this. I am willing to take this issue away and consult my colleagues who have policy responsibility in this area to see if I can help Members of the Committee. But I repeat that the Government have no plans to consult other than on the basis of raising the age to 18, and this clause reflects the discussions in the other place.
