Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NHS Patients (Access to Medicines).


NHS Patients (Access to Medicines)

I welcome the Secretary of State's statement, but I would be grateful for clarification on one point. The Richards review was about those who are required to pay for their NHS care because they have opted to pay for drugs privately. Can the Secretary of State confirm that, from today, none of those patients will receive an invoice from the NHS for their NHS care?
