Dermot
A load of rubbish from Kathleen Lynch - We were told ,seems many years ago, the UN Convention would be signed off in this Dail session etc etc. The only thing halting Ireland ratifying was Mental Capacity Bill, so what is all this from Minister of State Lynch - nothing more than excuses.? By the time Ireland ratifies it probably will be UN Convention on Old People with Disabilities!!!!!!!!

Regards, MMN Michael McNamara, T.D. Dáil Éireann, Leinster House, Kildare Street, Dublin 2 tel (01) 6184879 Q Deputy Michael McNamara: I have questions regarding two items of legislation. The programme for Government contains a commitment to ratify the convention on persons with a disability, for which a wide range of legislative changes are required. When will a Bill be brought forward to make the changes required in order that Ireland can proceed with ratifying the convention on the rights of persons with a disability. The Tánaiste: It is intended that the gender recognition Bill will be introduced this year. With regard to ratification of the agreements and the convention on disability, I will ask the Minister of State, Deputy Kathleen Lynch, to reply directly to the Deputy. ----- Forwarded by Edel Carroll/Oireachtas on 17/01/2013 11:12 ----- From: Adrian_McLaughlin@health.gov.ie To: michael.mcnamara@oir.ie Cc: David.King@taoiseach.gov.ie, dpbrennan@justice.ie, Leslie.Hamilton@taoiseach.gov.ie Date: 17/01/2013 10:51 Subject: Yesterday's Order of Business Dear Deputy McNamara, In yesterday's Order of Business you raised with An Tanaiste the Programme for Government containing a commitment to ratify the convention on persons with a disability.On behalf of Minister Lynch I would like to clarify the following. It is the Government's intention to ratify the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as quickly as possible, taking into account the need to ensure that all necessary legislative and administrative requirements under the Convention are being met. As you may be aware, Ireland does not become party to treaties until it is first in a position to comply with the obligations imposed by the treaty in question, including by amending domestic law as necessary. The ongoing implementation of our National Disability Strategy in many respects comprehends many of the provisions of the Convention. In addition, the Inter-Departmental Committee on the Convention monitors the remaining legislative and administrative actions required to enable ratification. At the Committee's request, the National Disability Authority, the lead statutory agency for the sector,is in the process of assisting it to assess the remaining requirements for ratification so as to ensure conclusively that all such issues will be addressed. One of the key requirements in this regard is the enactment of capacity legislation. The Programme for Government includes a commitment to introduce a Mental Capacity Bill that is in line with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Drafting of the bill is being finalised with a view to publication early in this Dail Session. The enactment of new legislation is one of the core elements of the remaining work to be completed to enable ratification by the State of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. regards, Adrian McLaughlin Private Secretary to the Minister for Disability, Equality, Mental Health & Older People Department of Health Hawkins House Dublin 2 ******************************************************** Email Disclaimer & Legal Notice: http://www.dohc.ie/mail_disclaimer/ ******************************************************** Supporting The Gathering Ireland 2013 - www.thegatheringireland.com Oireachtas email policy and disclaimer. http://www.oireachtas.ie/parliament/about/oireachtasemailpolicyanddisclaimer/ Beartas ríomhphoist an Oireachtais agus séanadh. http://www.oireachtas.ie/parliament/ga/eolas/beartasriomhphoistanoireachtaisagusseanadh/
