Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

moved Amendment No. 238GA: 238GA: Clause 216, page 151, line 13, leave out ““a particular entity, or”” The noble Baroness said: The answer to my questions may lie in the Minister’s earlier explanation of what an entity is and why these provisions are needed; I apologise if she has already covered the point. Clause 216 provides that the Secretary of State or Welsh Ministers can, "““give a direction exempting … a particular entity, or entities of a particular description, or … the trustees of a particular trust, or of trusts of a particular description””." My amendments question the particularity of the particular entity or the particular trust. As with a rather similar amendment discussed earlier today, I can see that there might be a need to deal with entities which fall within the same broad group of trusts, but can the Minister tell me in what circumstances the Secretary of State or Welsh Ministers would exempt one entity—one trust? I beg to move.
