Mental Health Bill 2024: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2026-01-29
============================================================

Mary Butler (FF), Waterford

I will not come back on Report Stage with this. I am not going to pretend I will. However, I am fully supportive of the sentiment and will certainly look at it in secondary legislation. I think it is important that there is clarity here. Some centres do not get three-year registrations. Some get two years and some get one year - it depends - but I think it is important that every centre is visited in every calendar year.
