Does the noble Lord not think that, when public bodies responsible for providing public services contract out with religious organisations, they have some responsibility to ensure that vulnerable people are safeguarded under those regimes? There are plenty of examples of religious organisations which have abused public trust in these areas, and we cannot always be sure that they will not proselytise for people who are not of their faith who happen to be in their care at a particular time. Does the noble Lord agree that perhaps things are not quite as rosy as he was suggesting?
