Proceeding contribution from Baroness Cumberlege (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 28 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Health and Social Care Bill.
Health and Social Care Bill
My Lords, I was heartened by a lot of what my noble friend said about maternity services, but it seems that the variations will be reduced through NICE quality standards. I understand that NICE has a very long queue of services to be considered for quality standards and I wonder whether my noble friend and the Government have any influence over which services have priority to have their standards set early and which will have to wait. As maternity involves a tremendous number of women who are giving birth, it is really important to get it in the front of the queue, as far as possible.
