  The majority of MPs voted against requiring a pre-authorisation review by an approved mental capacity professional before an authorisation for the deprivation of liberty of a mentally incapacitated person is made on the basis of a statement from a care home manager. 
  
  
  MPs were considering the Mental Capacity (Amendment) Bill[1]. 
  
  The amendment rejected in this vote was:
  :Amendment 50, page 17, line 13, at end insertâ
  :â(ca) the arrangements are being authorised under paragraph 16 of this Schedule, orâ
  
  Had it not been rejected the new subclause would have extended the list of circumstances where a "Pre-authorisation review" has to be carried out by a "Approved Mental Capacity Professional" to include those where a statement from a care home manager is the basis of an authorisation for the deprivation of liberty of a mentally incapacitated person.
  
  The rejected amendment was accompanied by the following explanatory statement:
  
  :This amendment would require an AMCP to review all cases where the responsible body is authorising arrangements based on a statement provided by a care home manager.
  
  The Bill provided that criteria for approval of Approved Mental Capacity Professionals may be set by regulations.
