The question is whether the threshold has been lowered in this section for involuntary admission compared with the existing law. It is a straightforward question. It is not complicated.

I share the concerns expressed by others. The Mental Health Commission has recommended that a dedicated authorised officer unit be set up in the HSE. I would be interested in the Minister of State's thoughts on that. I share the concern regarding full-time officers. What resources will be put in place to ensure that happens? It is all well and good saying we should have people available 24-7, but we need to resource that and have funding available. What resources does the Minister of State intend to put in place to…

I support the sentiments of previous speakers on enshrining wider assessment. If the Minister of State agrees this needs to be done but does not agree with the actual amendment, I encourage her to consider inserting a Report Stage amendment that will achieve something similar. I ask her to consider doing that on Report Stage, if she agrees this is worth doing and is worthwhile.
