My Lords, I beg to introduce a Bill to amend the law about the National Health Service; make provision in relation to arrangements and payments between health service bodies and local authorities with respect to health and health-related functions; confer power to regulate any professions concerned (wholly or partly) with the physical or mental health of individuals; and for connected purposes. I beg to move that the Bill be now read a first time.
