Proceeding contribution from Baroness Barker (Liberal Democrat) 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

This is an important point for the avoidance of doubt. This provision may be a product of other laws, such as the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007. Is the Minister trying to convey to us that the corporate body would be responsible, but if an individual acted in a way that was found to be outwith the policies and procedures of the corporate body and was acting solely in an individual capacity, they would be liable for prosecution in addition? Is that what she is trying to say?
