While I accept that the Minister of State aims to include a holistic approach to the care of the person, I do not understand why she will not include the phrase "mental health" as well. I ask her to consider including that phrase. She has spelt out all the other physical needs of the person and it would be important to include the phrase, the "mental health" of the individual.
