Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2016: First Stage

I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to provide that all children must be admitted to child appropriate inpatient psychiatric units and providing that no child shall be admitted to an adult psychiatric inpatient unit (voluntarily or involuntarily) save in exceptional circumstances where such admission is in the child’s best interests.

I second the motion.

Question put and agreed to.

When is it proposed to take Second Stage?

Is that agreed? Agreed.

Second Stage ordered for Tuesday, 20 December 2016.
Sitting suspended at 4.35 p.m. and resumed at 4.45 p.m.
