§ Mr. VazTo ask the Secretary of State for Health since the introduction of the Mental Health Act 1983, how many people have been removed from the United Kingdom under section 86; and if he has any plans to review the operation of this section of the Act.
§ Mr. Douglas HoggI have been asked to reply.
Two patients detained under the Act have been removed under this provision. There are no plans to review its operation.
750Wfor 1987–88 are not yet available and so a rate of occupancy cannot be calculated. The information about planned number of beds for 1988–89 is still being processed.
