Proceeding contribution from Stephen O'Brien (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.

Health and Social Care Bill

The Minister rightly confirmed that the first legislative opportunity would be taken to introduce access to these arrangements for self-funders—we all hear and accept that, as he acknowledges. Given that such provision was not identified as part of the draft legislative programme recently announced by the Government, has the Minister had any indication as to whether we might expect it in the forthcoming legislative programme—after all, it was only a draft that was announced—or soon after? Alternatively, does he see it as a more distant horizon?
