Mr. Stephen Sheil:

I thank the committee again for the opportunity to speak today. Mental Health Reform speaks for the people with lived experience of mental health difficulties and we believe we can all work together to provide historic legislation. We have some issues with some amendments and we would prefer some other amendments to be brought forward. We will continue to engage with the Minister of State and her officials on Report Stage of this Bill.

We are aware this is a good day. The fact we are all here today speaking about this piece of legislation is important but it is also important we keep the voice of lived experience in and at the forefront of the conversation, alongside the clinical side of things. I thank the Cathaoirleach again.
