Welfare Reform Bill

Can I be quite clear on that? We raised this question yesterday, and I would have expected a little more today. It is obvious to everybody that doctors, nurses and community psychiatric nurses are healthcare professionals. We are specifically asking for—in a clear and straightforward letter—is who else qualifies as a healthcare professional. What categories? What professional qualifications, if any, must they have? I listened carefully to the Minister; he spoke of the ““legally qualified member of a tribunal””. Do they have to be medically or professionally qualified? We are talking about those who are not covered by the obvious categories, not those who are. We must have that specific detail, please.
