Protection Of Nhs Staff In Wales

EDM number 1254 in 2007-08, proposed by Alun Michael on 25/03/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Anti-social behaviour, Crimes of violence, Devolution, Health services, Public order offences and National Assembly for Wales.

That this House calls on the Government to make it its policy to amend the Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill in order to ensure that the protections provided in the Bill for NHS staff and premises apply to both Wales and England; notes that whereas the management of NHS services is devolved to the National Assembly for Wales, criminal justice issues are not devolved; and believes that the primary legislation should apply across England and Wales, preferably to hospices and palliative care establishments, as well as to all NHS establishments irrespective of their form of governance.

This motion has been signed by a total of 27 MPs.
