Clause 36
Health and Social Care Bill
Public Bill Committees, 17 January 2008, 1:00 pm

Stephen O'Brien (Shadow Minister, Health; Eddisbury, Conservative)
How often does the Minister expects the returns set out in the clause to be made? That question goes to the heart of the burden of bureaucracy.

Ben Bradshaw (Minister of State (Health Services; Minister for the South West), Department of Health; Exeter, Labour)
I am afraid that I cannot give that information at the moment; I apologise. The hon. Gentleman asked the same question this morning, I think, and I will endeavour to get back to him on it within the next few minutes.
