Proceeding contribution from Baroness Golding (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 14 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

Further to that, all 50 states in the United States have mandated reporting laws whereby physicians are required to report child abuse to authorities and are protected from liability if they report in good faith. We do not have that measure in this country. Perhaps we should consider having it. I hope that the Minister will comment on that.
