Sorca Clarke (SF), Longford-Westmeath

I move amendment No 30:
In page 37, between lines 39 and 40, to insert the following:
“(c) where a person is subject to involuntary treatment for a period exceeding 21 days, shall carry out a formal capacity assessment at regular intervals to determine whether the criteria for continued involuntary treatment still apply.”.
