Proceeding contribution from Lord Lyell of Markyate (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Armed Forces Bill.

Armed Forces Bill

I rise briefly to support what the noble Lord, Lord Garden, said, and to ask the Minister to clarify the question of advice. It seems to me possible that strong advice could be given by a superior officer that did not emanate from a doctor, but which none the less would greatly influencethe conduct of a subordinate. I do not think that the advice should be quite so narrowly construed as the Minister seems to have in mind. If you get advice from a superior officer, that should be sufficient.
