Mental Health Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2026-04-16
============================================================

Pat Casey (CC), Labour Panel

For the information of Members, please note that the House, by agreeing to the motion to recommit, allows a Committee Stage-style discussion on amendments Nos. 28, 29, 286 to 302, inclusive, 306 and 309 to 328, inclusive, only. That is, Members may speak more than once on each of those amendments. In respect of other amendments, I would like to remind Senators that a Senator may speak only once on Report Stage, except the proposer of an amendment, who may reply to the discussion on the amendment. Also, on Report Stage, each non-Government amendment must be seconded.
Amendment No. 1 arises out of Committee Stage proceedings. Amendments Nos. 1; 3 to 10, inclusive; 12 to 15, inclusive; 18; 19; 21; and 23 to 27, inclusive, are related and will be discussed together, by agreement. Is that agreed? Agreed.
