Health and Social Care Bill

Can the Minister clarify one point? Is his objection to the amendment a drafting one—in other words, in an ideal world, were there more time, could a draft be found that would meet the various objections that he has just outlined—or is it one of principle, and is he saying that no such amendment to cover this loophole could conceivably ever be drafted? Perhaps I may take just a little more advantage of the Minister's time. He mentioned earlier that, in the Government's judgment, were a case along the lines described ever to come along, the court would find in favour of the Government's judgment. If that were not to be the case, can the Minister say whether in those circumstances the Government would be prepared to consider an amendment along the lines of that put forward by the noble Baroness, Lady Greengross?
