§ Mrs. Ann WintertonTo ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department if he will make a statement setting out his conclusions on those aspects of the Law Commission report on mentally incapacitated adults about which decisions have already been taken on which further consultation is not deemed necessary. [34118]
§ Mr. StreeterThe Government have indicated that they do not intend to legislate on the basis of the Law Commission's proposals in their current form. Given the importance and sensitivity of this subject, the Government do not believe it is appropriate to make final decisions in this area until full public consultation has been completed.
