Mental Health Bill [Lords]
12:00 pm
Frank Cook (Stockton North, Labour)
I remind the Committee that there is a money resolution in connection with the Bill, copies of which are available in the room. I also remind hon. Members that, as a general rule, adequate notice should be given of amendments. I and my fellow Chairman do not intend to call starred amendments. The Committee will have received a lot of textual submissions. I have done my best to approve them quickly so that hon. Members receive them as early as possible. I hope that they are of assistance. Membersof the Committee may remove their upper, outer garments, if they so wish—nothing more than that.
