Proceeding contribution from Baroness Barker (Liberal Democrat) 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]

There might be a difficulty if a hospital, a trust or whatever, which was operating under the auspices of the commissioning regime of a PCT, was not implementing NICE guidance—for example, in relation to particular drugs or therapies—and NICE then had to look at the quality of the outputs of the hospital. Does the Minister see the problem that might arise and how would that be dealt with?
