Clause 2 - Notice of patient's possible need
Community Care (Delayed Discharges etc.) Bill
11:30 am
Ms Meg Munn (Sheffield, Heeley, Labour/Co-operative)
Does the hon. Gentleman not accept that the Bill will move the relationship between the health service and social services on by requiring the health service to notify social services? That requirement does not currently exist in legislation, although it is good practice.
