Mental Health Bill 2024: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2026-01-22
============================================================

Victor Boyhan (IND), Agricultural Panel

Yes I will say it out again. Will the Minister of State briefly outline any differences in treatment between children under an emergency care order, an interim care order, a supervision order or a voluntary care arrangement? The Minister of State covered some of them in her speech. Perhaps not now, but maybe we could have a memo back before we meet again. I know that is complex. I did try to get a handle on it and I could not. Perhaps the Minister of State would drop it to us before the next debate. We can discuss it. I just want to try to understand that.
