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

Providers of services, such as smoking cessation clinics or sexual health clinics, could be registered in the same way as any other sort of health and social care that comes under the scope of the Bill. Campaigning work on issues such as obesity and so on could also be included within the scope of the Bill but not in the part that concerns the delivery of direct services. Therefore, the answer to the noble Baroness is that those campaigns could be included if the commission decided that it wanted to look at their effectiveness.
