Proceeding contribution from Baroness Winterton of Doncaster (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]

Once again, the hon. Gentleman needs to look at the amendments that he is tabling. There is nothing in what he proposes that would bring people forward for treatment earlier. I would like to pick him up on that point. I think that the hon. Member for Tiverton and Honiton (Angela Browning) was hoping to avoid future criticism by saying that there would be sufficient protection to ensure that everybody who was covered at the moment would be covered in future.
