Proceeding contribution from Baroness Carnegy of Lour (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 10 January 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Mental Health Bill [HL].


Mental Health Bill [HL]

Will the Minister not continue to use the extraordinary argument that this is a glory of devolution? It is one of the disadvantages of devolution which we must be vigilant in trying to prevent. I look forward to receiving the noble Lord’s letter and reading exactly what the implications of the different ways of dealing with this very important matter on either side of the border will be for patients and the public.
