HC Deb 25 July 1963 vol 681 cc1859-60

Lords Amendment: In page 48, line 41, after "experience" insert "conditions of service".

Sir E. Boyle

I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.

This Amendment again was an Opposition Amendment. It was moved by the noble Lady the Baroness Summerskill and accepted by the Government. It adds conditions of service in this matter over which the Inner London Education Authority and the boroughs are required now to consult each other under Clause 32(1,b). The other matters on which they must consult each other are qualifications, experience and appointment of professional staff concerned with both those health services.

Question put and agreed to.

Subsequent Lords Amendments agreed to.

Lords Amendment: In page 48, line 29, at end insert: (5A) In this section the expression 'professional staff' in relation to any scheme there-under means medical officers, dental officers, nurses, health visitors and such other specialist staff as may be specified in that scheme".

Sir E. Boyle

I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.

This was a Government Amendment to meet a point again put by the noble Lady the Baroness Summerskill in order to define the term "professional staff".

Question put and agreed to.
