Proceeding contribution from Baroness Meacher (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill [HL].

Health Bill [HL]

The noble Lord referred to the road that we might go down in future. The fact is that we are down the road. The problem is how to make sure that we get the road designed in the best interests of the NHS. I am not suggesting that we go into private patient work. One hospital gets 30 per cent of its income from private patient work, and many other foundation trusts do similar things.
