Proceeding contribution from Baroness Northover (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 15 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

As I said, HealthWatch England will need to look at what works well and what works not so well right across the country, gathering the information from local healthwatch. It will flag up things which, no doubt, will be uncomfortable at all levels of the NHS and the Government. Noble Lords would not expect change to be driven in any other way. If things are unsatisfactory locally, as fed by local healthwatch to HealthWatch England, if it is doing its job it will obviously flag up areas where change is required.
