Health Bill

There will be a full consultation. My memory is that the normal Cabinet Office rule is a three-month consultation. People are nodding their heads behind me to say that that will be the drill. I see that there are strongly held views on this. I am willing to take this issue away and consult my colleagues who have policy responsibility in this area to see if I can help Members of the Committee. But I repeat that the Government have no plans to consult other than on the basis of raising the age to 18, and this clause reflects the discussions in the other place.
