Proceeding contribution from Baroness Barker (Liberal Democrat) 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 thank the Minister for his reply. As someone who every week spends a little time looking at the Department of Health website, trying to keep up with what is on there, it is important to say that there is such a welter of guidance and guidelines coming from the department that there is a danger that sometimes they get lost. Therefore, a one-stop shop for the legislation might be as valuable as a one-stop shop for the guidance, not least because it will indicate to trusts exactly where they need to put their resources, efforts and priority. But I accept what the Minister says about practice and I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. On Question, Whether Clause 14 shall stand part of the Bill?
