Closed Fully enact Seni’s Law

Closed on

Urgently enact all of the Mental Health Units (Use of Force) Act 2018.

Seni’s Law was passed in 2018 but its full legislation is still not in place. Mental Health Minister Nadine Dorries urgently must enact the legislation.

The use of force on mental health patients has caused many people to lose their lives, Seni Lewis was just one of those people. We need to this law to be enacted on so that no other people have to die as a result of excessive force on mental health wards and so that no other families have to go through what Seni’s family experienced.
