Proceeding contribution from John Baron (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]
My hon. Friend makes a valuable point, which several hon. Members have raised. If we do not put independence at the core of the Bill, no matter how strongly the Government may argue that it is effective and fair, many NHS patients will not perceive it as such. If it does not have the confidence of NHS patients, we are engaged in an uphill struggle to try to ensure that patients receive the redress that they are due and that they are happy with the process. Otherwise, it will solve no problems.
