Proceeding contribution from Lord Campbell-Savours (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 26 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill [HL].


Health Bill [HL]

It that not also a matter of policy? Surely, the Government must have a view on whether that is right. In representing the public interest in these matters, the Government must have a view about whether that information is available. Whenever I go into hospital, I would like to know which ward is difficult so that I can make a decision about whether I want to go into it, particularly if it is an orthopaedic ward.
