Health and Social Care Bill

I wonder whether I might return on that point. I do not know the detail of these issues in the way that the noble Baroness, Lady Cumberlege, does, but she talks about room sizes. I do not know the answer and I am sure that the Government will explain, but perhaps they rescinded the standards because too many rooms were being removed from the market. That would not necessarily mean that the conditions in which people occupied those rooms were suitable. I would argue that the issue of room size is extremely important. When one goes around care homes—which I am sure the noble Baroness has done—and talks to people who live in them, one thing that they comment on is the size of their room. The Government may have rescinded the rules because they were worried about the lack of provision arising from controls, but I should have thought that room size was an extremely important issue of principle.
