I move amendment No. 282:
In page 160, after line 13, to insert the following:
“ Amendment of section 106 of Act of 2015
207. Section 106 of the Act of 2015 is amended by the substitution of “a person who lacks capacity has a mental disorder that fulfils the criteria for involuntary admission, the procedures provided for under the Act of 2025 shall be followed as respects any recommendation for involuntary admission of that person (within the meaning of section 16 of the Act of 2025).” for “a person who lacks capacity is suffering from a mental disorder, the procedures provided for under the Act of 2001 shall be followed as respects any proposal to detain that person.”.
