Criminal Law (Insanity) Bill 2002: Second Stage.

 

With regard to the mental health review board, I was more taken by the review board suggested in the Henchy report which recommended that there be two psychiatrists on the board. That would be well worthwhile. There would have to be a psychiatrist at any meeting of the board where a case was being assessed. The Bill should also state what a quorum of the board is to be. I could not find this in the Bill.
