Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Bill
11:30 pm
Lord Clement-Jones (Liberal Democrat)
I thank the Minister for that reply. She has made it pretty clear that her interpretation of Clause 113(3) is that the complainant will not be charged. The thrust of the amendment was very much to make sure that the complainant was not charged. Furthermore, she said that there would be analysis of the costs of current review mechanisms and full consultation about how any recovery of those costs from the players involved—presumably local authorities and so on—will be levied. That is a pretty satisfactory reply, so I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
