Tim Boswell (Daventry, Conservative)
Perhaps I can assist the Minister by saying, as a matter of general principle—I have no executive responsibility for this, as he will have noticed—that my view is that we need to move towards a demand-led system. I merely suggest to the Minister, if only for his own protection, that he should moderate or modulate that approach by giving a proportion of assistance for self-funding and self-selection to supplement the system but in no sense to take it over.
