Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 June 2006. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Recovery of Health Services Charges (Northern Ireland) Order 2006.


Recovery of Health Services Charges (Northern Ireland) Order 2006

The answer is no. I return to the example I gave earlier. If the victim has been involved in a road traffic accident or an accident at work and obtains compensation, it would normally be paid by the insurance company of the motorist or factory owner. That would not apply in the same way in the example given by the noble Baroness; that is, the GP would not be liable for tens of thousands of pounds. On Question, Motion agreed to.
