Proceeding contribution from Andrew George (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill (Programme) (No. 3).


Health and Social Care Bill (Programme) (No. 3)

I entirely endorse the Secretary of State's point about the biased way in which the last Government advanced the private sector, but may I make a point about the changes that have resulted from the listening exercise? The Secretary of State has sought to reassure the House about Monitor's role of integration and promoting collaboration. Would he be prepared to respond to, and perhaps even accept, amendments that I have tabled—for example, amendment 1226—which propose, I think reasonably and in a balanced way, that promoting the importance and the role of integration should be among the principal duties?
