Proceeding contribution from Lord Warner (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 5 December 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

Can the Minister explain something to us, if necessary in writing in order not to detain the House. I am very confused about what happens in areas where historically there have been great problems with health inequalities in securing a volume of primary medical services to meet the needs of those communities. I am very unclear who we are expecting to ensure that there is a sufficient volume of primary medical services and what the relative roles of the Commissioning Board, the CCGs and the health and well-being boards are in that context. It is a longstanding problem for the NHS. I do not expect the Minister to answer now, but it would be helpful to have some thoughts in a letter on that issue.
