Proceeding contribution from Earl Howe (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 January 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Mental Health Bill [HL].
Mental Health Bill [HL]
It would be defined initially both by case law and by the code of practice, I suppose. I know that the Minister has resisted this, but I do not feel that this is something that can simply lie totally within the code of practice; there has to be something in the Bill. I wonder if the Minister could look at this amendment to see whether it could be made more acceptable. I do not say that every aspect of it is perfect. It would be extremely welcome and would avoid our bringing the matter back at the next stage if the Minister could undertake to have a second look.
