Proceeding contribution from Earl Howe (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 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 support the noble Lord, Lord Low, very strongly in all that he has said on these amendments. In doing so I declare a non-financial interest as president of the National Society for Epilepsy, a charity that regularly finds itself entangled in exactly the kind of sterile and time-consuming arguments to which the noble Lord has so correctly referred. I hope that the Minister will be sympathetic to the issue and will do all she can to expedite a satisfactory outcome.
