Joint Committee On Health

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

Dr. Lorcan Martin:

Yes, absolutely. Dr. Broderick might speak more to that because she is nearing the end of her training. A specific human rights and ethics committee within the college reviews new legislation and areas relating to human rights and ethics in general. Not only are there modules for those in training but there are also continuing professional development events that deal with issues relating to ethics, law and so on. It is a case of lifelong learning that starts in the period of training and works through to the continuing professional development period.
