Care Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Dorrell (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 March 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Care Bill [Lords].

I am grateful to the Minister for his encouragement that I am on the right path.

There is a serious question here. I agree with my right hon. Friend the Member for Sutton and Cheam that, at a local level, the health and wellbeing board is the organisation best placed to move forward with the process of more joined-up commissioning. How we, as MPs, satisfy ourselves that this is happening to the required standard, with the required levels of economic efficiency across the system as a whole and above the level of the health and wellbeing board, is one of the questions left unanswered by the institutions we currently have. I am not entirely persuaded that the CQC should be encouraged into what I regard as a vacuum.
