Health and Social Care Bill (Programme) (No. 4)

Although we welcome Lords amendment 31, which was tabled by my noble Friend Baroness Barker in another place, the hon. Lady's amendment (a) proposes to go a stage further. I personally welcome that, but did she notice that the Minister, in justifying the Government's position that it would not practically be applicable, gave the example of a CCG commissioning from all its membership? Does that not fundamentally undermine the argument that clinical commissioning groups cannot be conflicted per se?
