Proceeding contribution from Peter Bottomley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 November 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.
Health and Social Care Bill
May I use this question to prompt the Minister later, although that may require a bit of work? Does the right hon. Member for Rother Valley (Mr. Barron), the Chairman of the Health Committee, agree that the civil standard in professional cases rises up towards the criminal level? There are not two totally separate standards. We could get advice on this, but I do not think that the BMA need be too worried if the current acceptance of what the judge has laid down for civil standards does indeed rise if a doctor's ability to go on practising is at stake.
