Mental Health Bill 2024: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2025-12-09
============================================================

Frances Black (IND), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I want to get some clarity from the Minister of State. The 2001 Act currently allows the review to happen before 14 days. Why change it to a 14-day minimum if the 2001 Act currently allows the review to happen? Can I get clarity on that?
