I understand from the Mental Health Commission that the report of the inquiry which I requested under the provisions of section 55 of the Mental Health Act 2001 is being finalised and that it will be forwarded to me in the near future. I will consider the Deputy's question when the report is received.

My Department has sought legal advice from the Office of the Attorney General on publishing the report referred to by the Deputy. Pending further consideration of the matter by the Office of the Attorney General, the Department has been advised against publication of the report either in full or in an edited format.
