Report of the Inspector of Mental Hospitals, 2001: Statements.
I constantly hear about the new Bill on the treatment of the mentally ill before the courts and in prison. However, in July 2001 when the last Mental Health Act went through, Members were told that the new Bill on the treatment of the mentally ill before the courts and in prison would be before the House that autumn. There is still no sign of it one autumn later. I was foolish not to have asked which autumn was referred to.
