Debate
Mental Health Bill [HL]Contribution
The noble Baroness, Lady Berridge, made interesting international comparisons, such as with New Zealand. Under our proposed reforms, people with a learning disability and autistic people, as I said, can be diverted from hospital to prison. It is about getting the right therapeutic environment. We are of course interested in international comparisons and experiences. We will look at them as we go further with the Bill.
