Health and Social Care Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Winston (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Health and Social Care Bill.
I am sure that the Minister will want to answer my question because it is not aggressive or political; it is really to find out how this Bill will work. When somebody goes to casualty after a month with a broken nose and complains, ““Look, my main problem is the pain in my sinuses which I have had for a long time””, and is told by the doctor when they had already waited six hours, ““I'm afraid the sinuses are a different department. You'll have to make another appointment””, that is a problem with integration. How does the Minister think we might accomplish better integration with this Bill?
