Proceeding contribution from Baroness Howe of Idlicote (Crossbench) 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

Before the Minister sits down, perhaps I may ask her one question. If a LINk in a local area is so persuasive about certain provisions that need to be made that, in its wisdom, the local authority decides that more of its finances should go in that direction rather than in the direction that I would heartily support—as I support the amendment of my noble friend Lord Low—would that mean that, with so many different priorities in each area, the situation would get worse rather than better?
