Proceeding contribution from Ann Coffey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 19 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Mental Health Bill [Lords].
Mental Health Bill [Lords]
I have listened to the explanations given by my hon. Friend and the hon. Member for East Worthing and Shoreham (Tim Loughton), and I am still very confused about the differences between the test of capability and this new test of impaired decision making. Even having heard my hon. Friend, I am still unsure. Does she agree that there would be quite a lot of confusion if two different tests were introduced, which might be tested in courts of law?
