Health Bill [HL]

I am grateful to the noble Earl. This amendment seeks to ensure that the duty to display a notice detailing how to access a quality account does not extend to each and every premise wherein services are provided—for example, a community nurse in a patient’s home. I appreciate the noble Earl’s effort to prevent an overextension of this duty and I can reassure him with his sentiment entirely. Our intention has been that the requirement applies to premises at which the provider generally provides services. We certainly do not intend that it should apply to a temporary or a one-off occasion. However, we wish to cover mobile premises, such as screening centres. Hence, the specific mention of a ““moveable structure”” under subsection (8). In the light of the points raised by the noble Earl, I am happy to take this point away for further consideration and to ensure that our shared aims are met. I need to seek legal advice and will come back to this matter on Report.
