Just to be clear, the reason I am asking is that in previous sessions with other professional groups it has been raised as an area of concern that they would like amended in the Bill. The new definition of community mental health service teams is of concern to some groups and I was wondering if today's witnesses share those concerns. At the previous session, we talked about out-of-hours service provision, for example. Reference was made to admitting patients out of hours and having to have a second person considered in that decision-making process.

Do our guests share those concerns? If not, do they think the proposed Bill goes far enough in terms of that shared governance model?
