Proceeding contribution from Andrew Dismore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 March 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Older People's Rights (Health Care).


Older People's Rights (Health Care)

I certainly think that that approach to discharge is the right one; I do not dissent from it. Our concern was that without a degree of flexibility, either in the rules or elsewhere, that ideal will not be reached. We recommended guidance from the Department that would effectively put in black and white what my hon. Friend just said. Will he consider whether it would be appropriate to produce such guidance?
