I beg to move, That the clause be read a Second time.
The Bill has not been the subject of detail or aggressive controversy. We are all working towards one objective, which is to reach a point at which patients in the NHS, and the public generally, are protected to the maximum possible extent. A key part of that objective is securing good-quality infection control, not least in the NHS.
Question put, That the clause be read a Second time:-
The House divided: Ayes 163, Noes 297.
