Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters
Decongregation of Mental Health Settings: Mental Health Commission
Mr. John Farrelly:
We use our own resources to do this, which is Dr. Finnerty. In law we are not required to do this. It is a strategy we introduced so that we could gain information. In the new Act we want the powers to regulate. It would not solve anything but at least it would create transparency so that people would begin to see how things are.
