NHS: Risk Register

Debate between Baroness Jolly and Baroness Anelay of St Johns

Tuesday 15th May 2012 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Jolly]

My Lords—

[Baroness Anelay of St Johns]

My Lords, there is time, and we have not yet heard from the Liberal Democrat Back Benches.

[Baroness Anelay of St Johns]

I am most grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Peston, for resuming his seat. Naturally, only one person should be on their feet at one time. There is time, although we have now wasted a little more of it, so perhaps we might hear from the Liberal Democrat Benches and then from the noble Lord. We have had two questions from the Labour Benches.

[Baroness Jolly]

My Lords, risk registers are a tool to inform policy-making, so is the department currently working on a risk register for the implementation of the social care Bill, including the risks around the failure to reform the funding of social care?
