Proceeding contribution from Baroness Finlay of Llandaff (Crossbench) 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

If we come back later with an amendment which specifies people of all ages—I accept what she said about the elderly also not having an adequate voice at times to meet their needs—will the noble Baroness consider it? This is one occasion when the legislation can give a lead and set a moral code. I also seek an assurance that there will be specific mention of children in the official guidance that goes with the Bill so that they are incorporated at every stage and do not remain left out, as they have been until now.
