Proceeding contribution from Earl Howe (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
I have already outlined a number of funds that are held centrally to enable that to happen. That is happening at the moment. I am pleased to say that we have had very encouraging take-up of those funds. The Social Enterprise Investment Fund has been in place for some time. What I cannot do at the moment is say how much money will be available next year. A lot of these funds will continue in the next year and we will be making announcements in due course. However, we are clear that there is a role for this type of lever to ensure that social enterprises and voluntary sector organisations can be supported in the way that the noble Lord, Lord Warner, indicated was important—and I agree with him.
