RANG UNDANG-UNDANG KESIHATAN MENTAL (PINDAAN) 2023
Bacaan Kali Yang Kedua dan Ketiga
The Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2023 seeks to amend the Mental Health Act 2001 by introducing Crisis Intervention Officers with powers to apprehend individuals attempting suicide or believed to be mentally disordered and dangerous, and to convey them to psychiatric hospitals within 24 hours for examination. The bill was debated during its Second and Third Reading, with supporters emphasizing the need for effective law enforcement response following the decriminalisation of suicide attempts, and no formal division was recorded, indicating agreement by voice.
