Proceeding contribution from John Baron (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on NHS Redress Bill (HL).


NHS Redress Bill [Lords]

I thank the Minister for that, but ask him to re-examine Government amendment No. 11(2B), which says:"““A scheme may provide that no copy of an investigation report need be provided…before an offer is made…in such circumstances as may be specified””." That needs clarification. I think that the Minister is saying that the investigation report produced at the end of the fact-finding stage would be made available to patients if they so requested. If that is not the correct position, he has an opportunity to put it right and to clarify what amendment No. 11(2B) means.
