Proceeding contribution from Oliver Letwin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Departmental Business Plans.


Departmental Business Plans

I respect the hon. Gentleman for his long work in areas such as drugs, but if he reads the plans he will find that they include serious efforts to change things for the better, such as through a payment by results-based drugs rehabilitation programme, for which, I think, he has long argued. That is not gobbledegook, bureaucracy or micro-management. It says to providers, ““You know how to provide and we will pay you if you get people off drugs and back into the mainstream,”” and nothing could be more important to the people of our country than that.
