Greater London Authority Bill

My Lords, the Minister has done as much as she can to help me with this. She has gone to great lengths to make clear the reason why the regional director is the health adviser and that that is now being formalised. I am not sure that I will get any further in pursuing this, because all that I would probably get is the same answer each time. However, it has been useful to able to establish exactly the role of the adviser. I rather suspect therefore—I should have asked the Minister earlier—that the regional adviser will be involved in the next part of the Bill, which relates to the reduction of health inequalities. When one has specific areas such as strategies, other people may need to be involved. Therefore, the Assembly’s role in these strategies becomes even more important. I thank the Minister and her officials. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 30 not moved.]
