ITV news reports on Fiona's campaign to amend the Mental Capacity Act in honour of her autistic son, Christopher, whose life we believe could have been saved by this amendment.
Eight months ago, in my maiden speech to Parliament, I said that Fiona Laskaris would succeed in changing the law that prevented her saving her autistic son Christopher from murder. I went to Parliament to honour that commitment.
Along with Fiona Laskaris, Jeremy Hunt MP and Jake Richards MP, I met with the Care Minister to discuss our proposed amendment to the Mental Health Bill.
At PMQs, Ed Davey challenged Keir Starmer in response to Chris' campaign to save the lives of others by changing the MCA following the terrible murder of Christopher Laskaris. The Prime minster promised to look into anything further that can be done.
After ITV news spoke about Christopher's story, they asked if the Minister will be considering Fiona's amendment.
Chris Coghlan MP spoke to ITV news to tell the story of Fiona Laskaris and her autistic son, Christopher, and how changing the Mental Capacity Act 2005 could have saved his life.
