Proceeding contribution from Baroness Armstrong of Hill Top (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 13 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.

Health and Social Care Bill

My Lords, there is some confusion outside the House about the relationship between the Secretary of State, the chief executive and the other senior appointees. The chief executive’s appointment was made before there was a board and a chair, but seems to be permanent. It is very unclear what the process will be for appointing directors. Have the Government a view on the governance of those sorts of arrangements, because the governance in this case does not seem to match what people expected in other areas of policy?
