Annotated Mental Health Act 1983 with changes proposed in 2024 Mental Health Bill

The Mental Health Bill published on 6 November comes with explanatory notes.  It does, however, require extensive cross-referencing to the MHA 1983 in order to make sense of what, exactly, it would do.  I have sought to do this exercise in the same way that I did for the draft Bill published in 2022.  It is available here, updated to reflect minor changes to the Bill made as it went through the Committee stage in the House of Lords  Please do send any errors or omissions that you spot to me at alex.ruckkeene@39essex.com.
