The Lord Privy Seal (Baroness Stowell of Beeston) (Con)
My Lords, we have not heard from the Cross Benches on this Question yet.
Baroness Finlay of Llandaff
Do the Government recognise that there is another group of children who must be considered—those who have illnesses limiting their mobility for a variety of reasons, some acquired and some congenital?

I declare my interest as president of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy.
Lord Prior of Brampton
The noble Baroness makes a powerful and strong point. All I can do is agree with her 100%.
