Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

I apologise to the Minister; I was not here as the debate tipped over and missed the first couple lines of what she said. As I understood the last passage, any member of ““a local authority”” could be interpreted as ““any local authority””, and the provision should read ““a member of the”” local authority. It is interesting because they are being entitled to perform a wide range of functions. ““Any function”” of a local authority could be anything at all. If they are going to be allowed to be charged with it, let us hope that this is adequate. I thank the Minister for her explanation. On Question, amendment agreed to.
