That is exactly the point I was trying to get at. By having it in the legislation it goes beyond what the Medical Council ethics guidelines provide for. I was really struck by the evidence in the report that some practitioners actually obstructed people being transferred to other professionals' care. That is horrific and it is not what people voted for.
