Health and Social Care Bill

This is Report; I do not want to and fro. I will assume that that covers part-funding of care by charities as well as where care is fully funded by the NHS, so the same will apply. I am grateful to the Minister for setting out the processes so clearly. It will be very helpful for patients, patient groups and charities in particular to see that laid out. For clarification, of course there will be local variation, different drug regimes and different ways of doing things. Equipoise is around the evidence base. The problem is where there is no provision or gross differences. That is where patient groups are concerned. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 7 withdrawn. Clause 4: The Secretary of State’s duty as to promoting autonomy Amendment 8 Clause 4: The Secretary of State’s duty as to promoting autonomy Amendment 8 Moved by
