Proceeding contribution from Baroness Thornton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health and Social Care Bill.

Health and Social Care Bill

I am not sure that we are not going round in circles here. At the moment, the first registration requirement in the consultation document is to ensure that people have their health or social care needs assessed. That is the first requirement. It does not address the wider issue of whether a whole area is covered. That is not what this part of the registration requirements is about. I may need to consider the question and come back to my noble friend, because we are clearly talking at cross-purposes; I may not be understanding exactly what he is asking me and therefore may not be answering it adequately for him. I hope that I can remedy that.
