Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This motion proposes changes to the Dutch Penal Code and Code of Criminal Procedure regarding the termination of mandatory psychiatric treatment. It focuses on allowing the Minister of Justice to end government-ordered hospitalization measures, aiming to streamline the legal process for releasing patients from state custody. The changes primarily affect individuals currently under mandatory psychiatric care and the legal authorities managing their discharge and supervision.
