Mary Butler (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 53:

In page 26, to delete lines 39 and 40 and substitute the following:

“(5) A direct application for a recommendation for involuntary admission shall be made in the form and manner specified by the Commission.”.

This amendment provides for a new subsection (5) to ensure that direct applications are made in a form specified by the Mental Health Commission.
