Clause 24 - Provision with respect to consent
Human Tissue Bill
3:30 pm
Mr Andrew Lansley (South Cambridgeshire, Conservative)
We do indeed welcome the Government's acceptance of the point that we put to them, and we applaud their amendments Nos. 108 and 110. They go further than we had divined: the Government noticed that it is unlikely that any person would at the same time have grandparents and grandchildren in a qualifying relationship. Happily,
we do not have to determine whether grandparents should stand higher in the hierarchy of qualifying relationships than grandchildren, although that had been our intention.
We commend amendments Nos. 108 and 110 to the Committee.
