Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have written questions today for the Minister of Health and Social Services regarding the NWT Mental Health Act for treatment data for the fiscal year 2009-2010 to the present.
In accordance with Section 6.(a) and (b) of the Mental Health Act, how many voluntary patients applied for hospital admittance in the Northwest Territories and how many of those voluntary patients were denied admittance due to a lack of beds and/or space?
In accordance with Section 8.(1) of the Mental Health Act, in how many cases has a medical practitioner had to make an order for the detention of a patient for a psychiatric assessment?
In accordance with Section 8.(3) of the Mental Health Act, how many reports has the Minister’s office received?
In accordance with Section 15.(1) of the Mental Health Act, how many times has a medical practitioner had to apply to admit an involuntary patient?
Under Section 16.(1) and (2) of the Mental Health Act, how many applications has the Minister examined, and how many of those were approved and how many refused?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
