Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 18 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

I wonder whether, as part of a continuing campaign, it would be possible for the Minister to refer all this to the people who invented these phrases. In the end, people ought to understand this information. Although elegant in his presentation, the Minister has made it clear that this is pretty difficult for people to understand. If we are to try to follow this properly, can we not speak in English? The word ““episode”” does not mean that in any other form. Perhaps the national health service would be kind enough to try to communicate with us more reasonably.
