HC Deb 22 November 2001 vol 375 cc422-3W
Mr. Heald

To ask the Secretary of State for Health whether he intends to table amendments to the National Health Service Reform and Health Care Professions Bill; and if he will make a statement. [16623]

Mr. Hutton

At this stage, as with any Bill of this size and complexity, there may be a need for some minor or consequential amendments. The scrutiny of the Bill during its passage may highlight areas where improvements could be made, and where an amendment might therefore be required.
