NHS Redress Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Sion Simon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on NHS Redress Bill [HL].
Is there not some confusion? The Secretary of State is explaining why, in her view, the advice can only come at the end, while admitting that the Government amendments in the Lords to clauses 6 and 8 appear to suggest that there is scope for giving advice throughout the process and for using jointly instructed experts. The right hon. Member for Liverpool, Wavertree (Jane Kennedy) certainly gave the impression in her letter to the Constitutional Affairs Committee that the Government would look sympathetically on that kind of reading of those amendments in the secondary legislation. I am a bit confused about what message the Secretary of State is trying to give to us.
