I move amendment No. 23:

In page 49, to delete lines 10 and 11 and substitute the following:

“ ‘health service’ means the provision of clinical care or any ancillary service to a person for⁠—

(a) the screening (other than screening carried out by a cancer screening service), preservation or improvement of the health of the person,

(b) the prevention, diagnosis, treatment or care of an illness, injury or health condition of the person,

(c) the performance or surgery, or a surgical intervention, in respect of aesthetic purposes, or other non-medical purposes, that involves instruments or equipment being inserted into the body of the person, or

(d) without prejudice to paragraph (a), a cancer screening service;”.
