national / health / disability issues / opinion/analysis Monday December 02, 2013 22:07 by Sean Crudden
The United Nations' convention on the rights of persons with a disability does not confer any particular right on anyone. As a mental patient I have no more rights with it as I might have without it. However the UNCRPD has a political effect. The Irish Government must repeal the Lunatics Act of the 19th century to make Irish Law consonant with the UNCRPD. That old act is long and detailed and makes elaborate provision to prevent the exploitation of lunatics i.e. mental patients. But, it seems, a new law is required introducing assisted decision making by patients rather than providing an authority to make decisions on our behalf. read full story / add a comment

Below is a statement released by the Maynooth Schools Group this morning. We are having a public meeting tonight (2nd December) to formally commence the campaign to reject the two school model that the Minister and KWETB plan to implement in Maynooth. Indymedia are more than welcome to come along. Our facebook is https://www.facebook.com/MaynoothSchoolsGroup for more information. The Maynooth Schools Group met last night and have reviewed all that has happened to date regarding the new school in Maynooth. We have decided that we completely and formally reject the proposals of the Minister for Education and Skills, Mr Ruairi Quinn and the KWETB's plans of implementation to build two fully vertical and separate schools on the same site in our town. read full story / add a comment |
