Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) (Amendment) Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-09-28
============================================================

Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

These amendments provide for regulations to set out additional persons or bodies eligible to make an application directly to the Circuit Court under Part 5. This will allow such parties to make a court application directly under Part 5 without first seeking permission to do so by way of an ex parte application. Where appropriate, this regulation-making power will allow for applications to be brought in a more streamlined and less burdensome way.
