Dr. Lorcan Martin:

We are obviously very happy that the Bill encompasses a greater awareness of human rights, which would be the most important thing. Otherwise there are a number of areas with which we would have serious concern in the implementation of the Bill. Fundamentally, the spirit of it is admirable and is a very good thing. However, it is the actual process and the implementation that is likely to cause significant difficulties for us. Obviously the knock-on effects there, most importantly, are the difficulties for the people we look after.
