Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on NHS Redress Bill [HL].


NHS Redress Bill [Lords]

Does the hon. Lady agree that the real issue is perception? If people perceive that the system is too much in the hands of those whom they see as judge and jury, although we and the Minister may know that they are entirely independent, that will defeat the whole object. We must ensure that, objectively, people perceive the system to be independent.
