Coronavirus Bill

Proceeding contribution from Matt Hancock (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 March 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Coronavirus Bill.

We have other ways to enforce that with care homes, not least contractually through local authorities. I understand the hon. Gentleman’s concern; people in care homes need to be protected, and many of them shielded, from the virus, because many of the most vulnerable people are in care homes. I will take away the point and look at whether more needs to be done, but we do have other powers available to deliver on what he and I—I think—agree is needed.
