Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Mental Health Bill 2024: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Paula Hilman:

Yes, that would be another key enabler of the work we are doing and will do going forward. With regard to the forum, a lot of the work we do is with the agreement of the individual, whereas if we had a stronger legislative framework surrounding data sharing, it would assist greatly. At the minute, it is working because we have people from two organisations in the one vehicle. However, for interventions with those who potentially do not agree with some of the longer-term, more proactive interventions that the forum will look at in terms of case-managing those individuals, certainly, data sharing would be a great enabler for us.
