Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 September 2020. It occurred during Debate on Coronavirus Act 2020 (Review of Temporary Provisions).


Coronavirus Act 2020 (Review of Temporary Provisions)

I thank the Secretary of State for all he has done. I have spoken to him many times about these issues. I am sure that he, like me, has received lots of emails outlining concerns about the stripping back of health and social care. The Government must ensure that such powers can be used only when

absolutely necessary and not to save funding while leaving people without appropriate care. Will the Secretary of State please reassure the House as to how the power will be regulated and reassure us that people’s health and social care rights will be protected?
