Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

I realise that I contribute a great deal of waste, but I understood the Minister to say that the amendment is not necessary. The noble Lord, Lord Hanningfield, is trying to get together everyone who is involved, but there is nothing to stop everyone who is involved getting together under the present arrangement. In other words, if one wants to be so prescriptive as to write that into the Bill, the problems that might arise or the restrictions that that might be subject to may have been missed by the Minister. But as I heard her earlier on, she said that there was nothing to stop the relevant people—by invitation, as the noble Lord, Lord Hanningfield, said—being invited to discuss any of these arrangements.
