.@DrVinayLakra also acknowledges it is pleasing that #RANZCP2022 can meet in person for the first time in two years but some measures to keep #COVIDsafe - wear a mask, take a RAT test before attendance & to not attend if feeling unwell.
Some #RANZCP2022 facts - 1500 in-person delegates, 500 attending virtually & 310 presentations incl posters- A bumper Congress!

I'm catching up on some of the recorded sessions & will start a thread on the 'Impact of the UN Committee’s statement in 2019 in relation to the minimum age of criminal responsibility', one of #RANZCP2022's recorded sessions, presented by Invited speaker Dr Enys Delmage
Dr Delmage is a consultant in adolescent forensic psychiatry and has worked in an adolescent forensic inpatient unit in Porirua, New Zealand, since November 2017. He has an interest in the law as it relates to children.ranzcp2022.com.au/dr-enys-delmage #RANZCP2022
Minimum age of criminal responsibility is defined as the age below which is deemed incapable of having committed a criminal offence. Below this age, children are 'doli incapax' - incapable of knowing that what they were doing was wrong- Dr Delmage #RANZCP2022 Image
