Proceeding contribution from Lord Boswell of Aynho (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Mental Health Bill [Lords].
Mental Health Bill [Lords]
Does my hon. Friend agree that it is an essential and important principle that we should not discriminate, that we should treat people fairly, and that we should not impose conditions on them unless there is a manifest need to do so? That has been the principle behind mental health legislation as our culture and knowledge have evolved over more than a century. We have made some progress in taking this forward, but perhaps not quite enough.
