Mental Health Bill [HL]

I thank the noble Earl for giving way. I do not want to delay the Committee, but the problem is the definition of exceptional circumstances and how they will operate. Clearly, we want to see a reduction in the use of police stations as places of safety, but I fear that the terms used in the amendment would not give enough discretion.
