Proceeding contribution from Lord Colwyn (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 3 July 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Health Care and Associated Professions (Miscellaneous Amendments) Order 2008.


Health Care and Associated Professions (Miscellaneous Amendments) Order 2008

My Lords, I am feeling rather left out of this order. I am probably the only person in the Chamber who does not know the answer, but can the Minister tell me why the Dentists Act is not involved at this stage? I had a useful conversation with the Department of Health about 10 minutes ago and I gather that similar changes are subject to another Section 60 order, which will be laid at a later date. It is something to do with the Scottish Parliament and the devolution settlement. Can the Minister tell me when that is likely to happen and why amendments to the Dentists Act are different?
