NHS: Babylon’s GP at Hand App
Debate between Lord Bethell and Lord Foulkes of Cumnock
Lord Bethell
To date, there has been no articulation of a need for further legislation.
Lord Foulkes of Cumnock (Lab Co-op)
My Lords, is it just a coincidence that Dominic Cummings used to work for this dodgy private healthcare company that is now getting so much financial and other assistance from the Government? How many meetings there have been between Health Ministers, particularly the Health Secretary, and officials from this company, Babylon? If the Minister cannot tell us today, will he write to me with details of every meeting and put a copy in the Library?
Lord Bethell
Decisions on individual providers are made by the NHS commissioners, not by special advisers. The meetings of special advisers are documented in Cabinet Office folders and I would be glad to send a link.
