Welfare Reform Bill

I suppose that is why one of the amendments suggests or recommends that if there is to be any element of compulsion it should involve attending an assessment. That does not cut right across all the provisions for medical treatment, which must have the consent of the individual. You do not have compulsory treatment; you give consent. If the element of compulsion concerned the assessment, the Government would avoid a lot of the major concerns that I think will arise in the medical profession, certainly judging from the BMA response.
