At a press conference, Bullrich and Senators Marquez and Arrascaeta read a draft opinion that could be signed on Thursday; involuntary detention is allowed, but asylums are still prohibited
The president of the libertarian bloc said that the ruling party is working to gather the quorum this Thursday and obtain an opinion for three initiatives, including the incorporation of advance directives, which will allow acceptance or rejection of treatments before losing the ability to decide.
One of the substantial changes that remains is the elimination of asylums, and the concept of addictions is expanded, as others such as gambling are included.
Patricia Bullrich will announce today the agreements reached in the Senate. The initiative also modifies addiction treatments, discharges and patient follow-up.
