Mental Health Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am very grateful to the Minister for dealing with the matter in such a constructive way. I should be happy to discuss the matter with him outside the Chamber subsequently if that is convenient and possible. The amendment is about the confidence of clinicians—medical practitioners—in carrying out treatment on patients who have needs. It is also about ensuring that patients who may be only temporarily incapacitated and who go into nursing homes or rest homes have their rights fully protected so that they do not find themselves in some kind of limbo when they are once more capable of managing their own affairs. It has been dealt with in a very constructive spirit. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 10 to 12 not moved.]
