Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hanham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 July 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill.

Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

I am not quite ground down. I shall speak to this Question just to say something, if for no other reason. This is a probing measure intended to follow up the debate in Commons Committee. The Minister in the Commons said that the Government were still consulting on potential conflicts of interest regarding the interaction of the Audit Commission with other authorities, and, "““the Audit Commission’s powers to offer improvement advice””.—[Official Report, Commons, Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill Committee, 27/2/07; col. 401.]" How far has that consultation gone? How will the powers in Clause 150 sit with any potential future changes?
