Joint Committee On Health

General Scheme of the Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2021: Department of Health

Mr. James Kelly:

The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which we ratified in 2018, is probably the main one, as well as the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. They loomed large in our minds as we drafted the heads. The European Convention on Human Rights is another document we referred to, and there are a couple of others. It might be easier for me to revisit the list I have, which I can send on to the committee secretariat for circulation, to ensure I do not miss anything.
