Mental Health Bill [HL]

My Lords, I feel enthused and sparked up. In Committee, we said that we would take away the issue of advocacy and consider the best way to make advocacy services available. That is exactly what we have done, but tonight’s deliberations will inform us more and will add spark to that debate. As I said in the previous debate on advocacy for children and young people, this issue demands careful consideration, so we are continuing to develop our proposals on the subject. We will bring them back when the Bill is considered in the other place. In the mean time, we look forward to discussing those proposals with interested noble Lords, and I would ask the noble Lord to withdraw his amendment.
