Clause 12 - Commencement
Health Protection Agency Bill [Lords]
10:45 am
Dr Andrew Murrison (Shadow Minister, Public Services, Health & Education; Westbury, Conservative)
This is quite a complicated clause, which contains technical language. I hope that the Minister will talk a bit about it and not let it pass by without comment. Reference is made—in the explanatory notes, at least—to the appointment of medical inspectors under the Immigration Act, and I would be grateful if the Minister could talk us through
how the clause will affect the immigration service, and particularly the medical inspectorate.
