Proceeding contribution from Baroness Cumberlege (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill [HL].


Health Bill [HL]

I support what has been said by noble Lords. I think that the points made by the noble Lord, Lord Campbell-Savours, were very pertinent. I would like to join those who want to make something like this happen. The idea of putting in a floor is a good one—a £10 floor or whatever—but it needs some detailed work. That would be very good, and I am sure it would reduce the cost of drugs.
