Dr Luke Evans

Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 October 2025

Debate

Mental Health Bill [Lords]

Contribution

My hon. Friend makes an excellent point. The only protections that I can see in schedule 2 are an age requirement, a stipulation not to be disqualified by a previous court order, and the presence of a witness. There is therefore no pre-emptive way of protecting people, which is why amendment 41 is so important.
