Coroners and Justice Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Neill of Bladen (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Coroners and Justice Bill.
Let me just finish the point; the Minister will demolish it, because he obviously thinks that I have got it wrong. The two obvious distinctions between someone who is in hospital and someone who is in prison are, first, that the prisoner has no liberty at all and, secondly, that he is quite likely to be surrounded by people of a violent disposition. The whole set-up of a prisoner dying in prison is totally different from that of a patient dying in hospital.
