Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the NHS is excluded from the current Transatlantic Trade Investment Partnership draft documents, and whether they will publish the legal advice they previously commissioned, in full or in summary, regarding the risk to the NHS of litigation by US private health companies.
It has not proved possible to respond to this question in the time available before Prorogation. Ministers will correspond directly with the noble Lord.
