Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) (Amendment) Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2022-10-06
============================================================

Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

This amendment will allow for disabled persons and their representative organisations to be consulted by the director when codes of practice are being developed. Consultation was a strong theme during pre-legislative scrutiny and was also raised during the Dáil debates on this Bill. I am, therefore, pleased to propose an amendment which recognises the importance of the inclusion of disabled persons in the development of the relevant code of practice.
