Clause 2
Health and Social Care Bill
3:00 pm
Sandra Gidley (Shadow Minister, Health; Romsey, Liberal Democrat)
When I first saw this amendment, I wondered whether such things did not happen automatically. Then I recalled Anna Walker’s saying on Tuesday that she would sometimes take a provider to task, who then said, “Look, we are just not funded for that service”. She felt that the providers had few powers to affect that. Bearing that in mind, the amendment is probably more useful than I first anticipated.
