Proceeding contribution from Baroness Barker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 27 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Mental Health Bill [HL].


Mental Health Bill [HL]

My Lords, I thank the noble Baroness for that full answer. As I anticipated, she has not changed her mind. Neither have I, but it was important for us to put our views on record, not least because I believe that this will be a matter to which courts will turn their attention. For that reason, ithas been a helpful exchange of views. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
