Proceeding contribution from Lord Sutherland of Houndwood (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 22 February 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Personal Care at Home Bill.
Personal Care at Home Bill
My Lords, I want to support the probing in relation to housing and dementia. I will say no more about it, other than that I hope it will continue. I will comment briefly, I promise, on Amendment 42. I admire the thoroughness with which the noble Baroness, Lady Barker, conducts herself in proceedings such as this, but I wonder if she has perhaps gone a step too far in this amendment. Despite the fine provenance that she quotes for much of the material, there will inevitably be gaps—for example, there is no mention of insulin injections, which some would regard as fundamental. I do not want to see that added to the list; I am just making the point that there will always be gaps if you make a list. I would prefer a series of general points that have to be covered.
