Health Transition Risk Register — Statement
2:02 pm

Lord Marks of Henley-on-Thames (Liberal Democrat)
My Lords, I apologise to the House for not being in my place when my noble friend read the Statement. However, I read the Secretary of State's Statement in full. My noble friend mentioned that the previous Administration refused freedom of information requests for disclosure of risk registers on three occasions. Will he tell the House how many times risk register disclosure has been refused by both this and the previous Administration? Does he know that in Wales the Labour Administration have also refused disclosure of a Department of Health risk register? Does he discern any difference of approach to the disclosure of risk registers between this and the previous Administration?
