Proceeding contribution from Lord Warner (Labour) 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 listened very carefully to the Minister’s response to my amendment on patients’ access to or holding of their medical records. As I understood what he was saying, it was that we could eagerly look forward to the Government’s long-awaited information strategy which might well be moving this agenda forward. If that is indeed the case I hope we can consider further with the noble Earl and his officials whether we should enshrine that moving forward in the Bill so patients have a clear statutory right to have access to and to hold their medical records. I will not move the amendment. Amendment 124 not moved. Amendment 124A not moved. Amendment 125 Tabled by
