That was a very interesting and reassuring exchange between the noble Lord, Lord Elton, and the noble Baroness. The only thing that worried me was her comment that she "hoped", because I should have thought that the way that the Bill is written and the fact that the funding follows the individual and so on indicates that that choice will be available. I would be very grateful if the noble Baroness was more positive.
