Lords ChamberAs I have explained, to date I have seen no evidence that leads to that conclusion. The Treasury has done no detailed studies on the matter.
My Lords, is the Minister aware that the health reforms seek to ensure that the sort of situation that the noble Baroness, Lady Farrington, described, whereby the National Health Service has had to pick up all the failings of the private sector, will not happen again?
My Lords, I can only repeat that there is no intention to change the relationship between private healthcare provision and entitlement to NHS care.
