Health and Social Care Bill

I would refer the noble Baroness to the public health outcomes framework and the way that this will be included in that. The framework is very widely drawn and I hope that the Opposition will generally welcome that. It builds on the work that they themselves did and I hope that they recognise that. I think that I have covered most of the issues that were flagged up. I reiterate that we appreciate enormously the commitment that noble Lords have paid to this area. We know how important it is; it sets the foundation for what happens later for many of these children. On the basis of that, I hope that the noble Baroness will be willing to withdraw the amendment.
