Proceeding contribution from Lord Patel of Bradford (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 30 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

They are not documents but discussions I have held as a chair of the Mental Health Act Commission. As such, my responsibility is to ensure that we carry on delivering the best possible service to detained patients and to retain the staff and commissioners who can deliver such a service. They are clearly saying to me, ““We need leadership and forward planning and we need to be confident that we have a role in future””. However, at this moment in time that is not the case.
