I again welcome the clarity achieved today that we are not obliged to legislate for the X case. I believe it is worth considering Dr. Maria Cahill's analysis of the reason the Bill might be unconstitutional. Members have heard warnings in the past and this possibility is worth considering. The evidence about the lack of a treatment plan is particularly relevant.
