Health and Social Care Bill

I thank noble Lords. I will take only a moment, but we will need to return to this. First, this was not looked at properly in the Commons and I can see that that is the case. Secondly, I recall that the chief executive David Nicholson disagrees. He said that he advocates de-authorisation. I believe that the pooling and the levy are bureaucratic and expensive and that the noble Earl does not understand that reconfigurations will not be led locally. I do not think that the Bill adequately approaches how we will manage reconfigurations. To be kind one has to say that the work is ongoing; I am not quite saying that the department and the Bill team are making this up as they go along, but it is definitely an area to which we will need to return on Report. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 282ZA withdrawn. Amendments 282ZB and 282ZC not moved. Clauses 85 agreed. Clauses 86 and 87 agreed. Clause 88 : Revocation of Licence Clause 88 : Revocation of Licence Amendment 282A not moved. Clause 88 agreed. Clauses 89 to 92 agreed. Clause 93 : Standard conditions Clause 93 : Standard conditions Amendments 282B to 284 not moved. Amendments 284A to 284C Moved by
