New law fails to protect those with disability

I refer to the Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Bill 2013, the Order for Report Stage of which is to be moved today and Report Stage and Final Stage of which are to be dealt with then.

The following sections need reconsideration: sections 4. (3) (a), (b), (c), 66. 4 (b), 6 (a), (b), (c) (i); and section 118 should be left as is.

The Bill is seriously flawed in that it fails to protect from undue pressure persons planning their health care into the future.
