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

Victor Boyhan (IND), Agricultural Panel

I will restart. I thank the Minister of State very much for setting out the transitional provisions. I take her word for it. She has confirmed that it is time-bound. That is a really important point. She also talked about the Mental Health Commission and its role and oversight in terms of governance. Of course, that is always really important. We will have another opportunity to talk about the Mental Health Commission later. I am satisfied with the Minister of State's reassurance from a personal point of view. I thank her for setting out the explanatory discussion in relation to that.
