Criminal Law (Insanity) Bill 2002: Committee Stage (Resumed).

 

1:00 am

Mary Henry (Independent)

I move amendment No. 22:

In page 5, subsection (3)(b), line 30, to delete "commit him or her to a specified designated centre" and substitute "commit him or her to the designated centre subject to the agreement of the clinical director of the specified designated centre".

This again seeks to ensure that the clinical director be given some possibility of saying his or her unit is entirely unsuitable or that the place needs to be closed down.
