Schedule 1 - Health Protection Agency
Health Protection Agency Bill [Lords]
9:45 am
Mr Paul Burstow (Shadow Secretary of State for Health, Health; Sutton and Cheam, Liberal Democrat)
I certainly do not want the schedule to be put into plain English, although translating the legalese in which the legislation is by necessity written can be an aid to debate. Will the Minister further explain the reporting responsibilities set out on pages 13 and 14, as well as give an account of the section on finance on pages 12 and 13? That would address my main concerns, and I would be happy for the schedule to stand part of the Bill.
