Proceeding contribution from Lord Watson of Wyre Forest (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Mental Health Bill [HL].
Mental Health Bill [Lords]
If ever there was a piece of legislation that proved that we cannot please all the people all the time it is this Bill. However, is my right hon. Friend aware that many Members on both sides of the House have been convinced by the advocacy of the mental health charity, YoungMinds? The charity is looking for reassurance during the passage of the Bill that we will never again allow children as young as 10 to be treated in the same way as older people; we do not want to see them on adult mental health wards.
