Proceeding contribution from Baroness Thornton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

I realise that this is important. Who is liable in an organisation such as an NHS trust? Is it the person or the body itself? In other words, it would be the trust, not any individual person. But under Clause 87, if an individual is responsible, that person would be liable. I hope that helps.
