Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 16 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill.


Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

I think that the noble Baroness has answered a question that I was going to ask later—so I will not ask it now. As I understand it, locally agreed targets agreed outside the process of setting up an LAA or a revision proposal and agreed just between the partners have to be unanimous. In other words, the partner affected by it can veto it and, if it does that, it does not go ahead. For example, if a county council, which was a responsible authority, proposed a change and the district said ““no””, it would not happen, but if it happened as part of a revision proposal and went to the Secretary of State, the requirement for unanimity would not be there. Have I read it correctly?
