Speaking in the House of Lords on 14 January 2025

Debate

Mental Health Bill [HL]

Contribution

Similarly, Amendment 41 would require that the psychiatric disorder and the reasons for that alone are listed on the statement when a patient is detained and that autism and learning disability should not be listed as the reason for detention. It may be appropriate in other types of documentation associated with the patient but not on the reason for detention.
