We are talking about an increased risk. The expert panel didn't rule that out.
The experts made it clear that general rules should not be applied across the board. Cases should be reviewed individually, on a case-by-case basis, as the experts referred to it. The history and progression of the disease need to be considered, as does the number of treatment attempts. The assessor should not be the treating provider or a member of the care team; the assessor should be independent from the treating team. Lastly, the case should also be examined by a psychiatrist, who would also assess the situation. All that to say, the risk is high.
All of those elements are implemented with precautionary principles in mind, as well as measures that require stakeholders to follow a different process.
Medically speaking, Ms. Gladu's condition was easy to assess. No one is saying that a mental disorder is easier to assess. That's why the issue was entrusted to a panel of experts. That's why we created a joint committee, which reviewed the expert panel's report, heard from witnesses and asked questions. There seems to be an appreciation of the increased risk.
