By contrast, the criterion of consumersovereignty is not a direct implication of the principle of normative individualism. Like consumersovereignty, citizen sovereignty is a procedural criterion. Patient autonomy is not the same as consumersovereignty.

In medicine consumersovereignty is attenuated, if not foreign to the domain.

Due to that problem there is no consumersovereignty. From the Hansard archive Example from the Hansard archive.
