§ 107. Mr. Liptonasked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the adjudication by the Press Council on 25th July last that the changed character of Broad-moor is not generally known, he will take further action to make it clear that patients on Broadmoor are not to be regarded as criminal lunatics.
§ Mr. K. RobinsonI welcome this opportunity of emphasising that Broadmoor is a psychiatric hospital for the treatment of mentally disordered patients under conditions of special security. This has been the correct description of the hospital since the Mental Health Act of 1959.
