Question
accordingly negatived.
Question
proposed, That the clause stand part of the
Bill.
Ms
Winterton:
The hon. Gentleman’s explanation is a
nice try, but it rather exposes the real view—a non-belief in
the role of the responsible clinician, given that the effect of his
later amendment would be to destroy clause 11 completely and take it
out of the Bill.
Question put and
agreed
to.
Clause 11
ordered to stand part of the
Bill.
Clauses
12 and 13 ordered to stand part of the
Bill.
Further
consideration adjourned.—[Cla

accordingly at four minutes pastSeven o’clock till
Tuesday 8 May at half-past Ten
