Health Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Howard Stoate (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Health Bill [Lords].
While my right hon. Friend is on the subject of direct payments, will he clarify what would happen if a patient decided to spend their budget on a clinically ineffective regime that did not deliver the goods? Might not that result in a fall-back on the NHS, which would have to pick up the pieces or repair the damage caused by ineffective or harmful treatments?
