Baroness Finlay of Llandaff (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 February 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

May I finish my list of questions and then the noble and learned Lord can come back? Can he write to us to tell us who Chris Whitty spoke to before giving evidence to the committee that the Mental Capacity Act is adequate? If he spoke to the CLADD group and those involved in the National Mental Capacity Forum, I am surprised that they would have said it was adequate, because they are the people who were particularly concerned about that clause and felt that this should be corrected.
