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

Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

If I may briefly speak to the point, it is important to note that in this Bill we are legislating for IHREC to be the monitoring body of our nation's implementation of the convention. IHREC is central to how this legislation and, indeed, how the CRPD will be implemented in this country, as per section 95. Notwithstanding what has been raised regarding the consultation - and I accept the earlier point about it being held over Christmas - IHREC will be central to this and we are legislating to ensure that.
