To learn about Mental Health Reform's concerns and recommendations regarding the The Mental Health Bill 2024, read below!
The Mental Health Bill has recently passed Committee Stage and
is due to progress to Report Stage in the coming weeks. It represents a
significant step toward modernising Ireland’s mental health laws in line with
human rights and international best practice. Mental Health Reform (MHR)
welcomes the amendment to review the Act every five years instead of ten—a
positive move toward more responsive legislation.
However, Mental Health Reform have
raised concerns about some recently agreed amendments approved at committee
stage and are actively engaging with the Minister’s office to urge changes at
Report Stage. They also continue to highlight omissions in the Bill that we have
previously highlighted, such as the need for independent advocacy.
