Proceeding contribution from Baroness Barker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.

Health and Social Care Bill

The noble Lord is quite right and I will come on to that. These amendments also refer to the board publishing guidance and what that guidance would include. As I understand it, members of CCGs who are in material or consistent breach of a conflict-of-interest policy might be referred to their professional body. Amendment 86A is a regulation-making power. It is under that power that many of the important details could be included. They would, I imagine, include issues such as the ones which the noble Lord has just raised about the sorts of sanctions which CCGs should include in their guidance and policy.
