Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

I thank the Minister for her response. I agree with the noble Lord, Lord Greaves, that it confirms our worst fears. One hoped that there would be something real in this, but there is still a lot of uncertainty about it. My noble friend is tempting me to divide the Committee on this one, even at this late stage this evening, but I shall not give in to that temptation. However, we need rather more clarity and more information from the Government about what the new by-law powers mean. We need local government to have real power rather than so many things still being controlled by various Secretaries of State. I shall not divide the Committee tonight, but we shall live to fight another day. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 225ZB not moved.] Clause 130 agreed to.
