Part of Health Service Commissioner for England (Complaint Handling) Bill – in a Public Bill Committee am 2:15 pm ar 15 Ionawr 2015.
My hon. Friend is right about the increase in complaints. The professional associations—the royal colleges—are also receiving more complaints, but the legislative framework for them to handle those complaints is often quite difficult. In the Health Committee last week, we heard about that from the Nursing and Midwifery Council. Does he agree that, whoever forms the next Government, to deal with this large increase in complaints we have to have a Law Commission Bill to restructure the medical councils, so that they can deal with the complaints properly?
