Proceeding contribution from Lord Winston (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 25 October 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

Perhaps I could ask the Minister a general question. The noble Lord has been specific in picking up some of the details of the amendments. The beauty of the amendment proposed by the noble Lords, Lord Patel and Lord Walton, is its simplicity and ethos. Government Amendment 43, proposed by the Minister, refers to the, "““delivery of education and training to persons who are employed, or who are considering becoming employed””," in the health service. Considering becoming employed can mean a whole range of things. A lot of people who are considering becoming employed in the health service may not actually apply for a job. How is that possibly enforceable within the context of this amendment?
