Health Bill

Health Bill Actual start House of Commons

15:24 - 15:31
Speaker 2
Order, order.  We were debating group 25 and the Minister was in mid-flow.  So I call the Minister. 
15:31 - 15:59
Speaker 5
Thank you, Sir Jeremy.  I'll start where I was on clause 34, which addresses the gap by making clear where responsibility sits.  So there is no doubt about who must produce the final accounts and ensure they are completed properly, and about how those accounts should be audited.  We therefore consider this a proportionate provision to ensure continuity and clarity on how NHS money has been managed during organization transition, and I commend these clauses to the committee. 
15:59 - 16:01
Speaker 3
Dr. Caroline Johnson. 
16:01 - 16:11
Speaker 4
Thank you, Chair.  I rise to deal with clause 31 with schedule 4, clause 32, clause 33, and clause 34, I believe.
