Health Bill [Lords]

That is the whole point of involving private income. As the Minister would be the first to admit, to some degree the issue is a matter for the foundation trusts.

The answer is not as black and white as the Minister might wish it to be, but I have given the right answer even according to his Government’s policies. I have simply recycled for the right hon. and learned Gentleman what is going on under his policies.
