Proceeding contribution from Lord Darzi of Denham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

I hear that point very strongly. I am currently busy carrying out the next stage review. We need to stop looking at healthcare and social care as separate entities and start looking at them through patients’ eyes. If we achieve one thing, it should be to break the barriers between the two, as the importance of one cannot be at the expense of the other. I strongly believe that and will take that point back.
