Clause 7 - Publication of information
Health Protection Agency Bill [Lords]
9:30 am
Dr Andrew Murrison (Shadow Minister, Public Services, Health & Education; Westbury, Conservative)
The Minister has satisfied most of my concerns. However, the amendment includes the phrase ''express wishes''. It does not allow the agency to ask a third party, ''Do you mind if we publish?'' It has to have a person's express wishes. When disclosing information to the agency, the body concerned would have to say expressly that the information was for the agency's eyes only.
