Speaking in the House of Lords on 14 January 2025
Debate
Mental Health Bill [HL]Contribution
The Equality Act and the public sector equality duty already require that providers of services to the public make reasonable adjustments for people with disability and other protected characteristics. I assure noble Lords that the guidance to services responsible for informing and supporting individuals will be very clear about these requirements and what needs to happen in practice to ensure that those with communication needs can create an advance choice document.
