Feargal Quinn (Independent)

I add my voice to that appeal. The word "insanity" does not fit into the language used nowadays. The term "mental disorder" works a good deal better. I refer to the original Bill when Stewarts Hospital, which I visited recently, was opened in 1870. The word used then was "lunatic". It seems we have changed the word used from "lunatic" to "insanity" and it is time to change it again. I understand what has been said by the two speakers, that it would mean making several other changes. I also understand why the Minister of State might be reluctant to do this, but the change would be worthwhile. It would mean a great deal, especially for those involved.
