The Health (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill is proposed legislation. It is a fairly comprehensive Bill which will affect the delivery and structure of the health service through many sectors in the country. It purports to reform the Medical Practitioners Act, the Dentists Act, the Health and Social Care Professionals Act, the Pharmacy Act, the Nurses and Midwives Act, and the Health Acts in 1953 and 2004, and to bring them into line with an EU directive. What is the progress taking place on the Bill itself? When is it likely to come before the House and have its First Stage and Second Stage?
