Proceeding contribution from Lord Butler of Brockwell (Crossbench) 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 am grateful to the Minister for his comments in response to Amendment 109A and I thank the other noble Lords who have supported it. The noble Lord, Lord Newton, said that this is a probing amendment. As the Minister has said, there is a question of balance here: we want the Commissioning Board to be an effective promoter of standards, but on the other hand we do not want the arrangements to put an unnecessary brake on innovation. I am sure that the noble Lord will consider carefully what the Minister has said. In the mean time, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 109A withdrawn. Amendments 110 to 120B not moved.
