MS SZUTY (9.43): I thank the Minister for Health for the copy of the minute of the working group, which he provided me with some little time ago. I must admit that I am surprised that the working party would accept only two of the amendments as proposed by Mrs Carnell to the Skin Penetration Procedures Bill 1994. I understand the Minister's argument that sending out a code of practice to each licensee is unusual; but I would have to say that, in terms of the general principle of provision of information to licensees, I think it is a very sensible measure to adopt. I would be inclined to support the amendment at this stage.

Question put:

That the amendment (Mrs Carnell's) be agreed to.
