Mary Butler (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 220:

In page 114, between lines 2 and 3, to insert the following:

“(2) In relation to a registered community mental health service, the Chief Inspector shall visit and inspect a representative number of those services within the registration period, taking into account—

(a) a geographic area of registration ensuring a balanced representation of inspection across that area,

(b) the level of compliance with this Act or any regulations made thereunder of—

(i) a registered community mental health service, or

(ii) another registered community mental health service with the same registered proprietor or responsible person as subparagraph (i),

(c) whether a number of registered community mental health services have the same

registered proprietor or responsible person, and

(d) such other criteria as the Commission considers appropriate.”.
