Proceeding contribution from Baroness Finlay of Llandaff (Crossbench) 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

I am most grateful and much reassured. The other assurance I seek concerns the OHPA being able to make special provision. Enshrined in that should be the need to maintain a balance between professional and lay members, so that there could not be a skewed number. As the panel increases in size for complicated hearings—and I can see that it might have to do that—it should maintain a balance as it expands.
