Dear Mr McKenna,

RE: REQUEST FOR LEGAL ADVICE

On December 7th 2018 I received a "CC" copy of a letter dated November 27th 2018 which was written by Consultant Psychiatrist Dr Paul Bell to Dr David Cheyne, who is my GP.

A scanned copy of Dr Bell's November 27th 2018 letter has been placed at the following www location:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/ConsultantPsychiatristDrPaulBell/27November2018/Letter.htm

As can be viewed via the www link immediately above Dr Bell has diagnosed me as suffering from "Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder", and, through Dr Cheyne, has suggested that I "engage with a voluntary sector counselling organisation" which, as I understand it, was to be of  Dr Cheney's choosing.

In so far as I am aware, Dr Cheyne does not seem to have chosen any "voluntary counselling organisation" for me.

I have sent a number of emails to Dr Cheyne in connection with the above matter, the most recent of which was sent directly to his surgery on March 14th 2019. To date, I have not received any reply from him, or from any of his support staff.

A copy of my March 14th 2019 email to Dr Cheyne, which I feel is self-explanatory, can be viewed at:

The difficulty referred to above, which relates to "talking therapy" type treatment for the Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder I'm suffering from, is the most recent of a long string of similar difficulties I've experienced during the past several years. Additional information on this aspect of my present set of problems can be seen at the www location immediately below, which relates to a "Letter Taken by Hand To an Appointment with Consultant Clinical Psychologist Dr Elizabeth McMonagle on May 17th 2016":
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/DrElizabethMcMonagle/17May2016/Letter.htm

In a letter to Dr Bell dated November 3rd 2018, I attempted to provide him with an overall outline of the general (and growing) set of medical, legal, and other closely related problems I have been, and continue to be, "stuck" with for the past several years. A scanned copy of the November 3rd 2018 letter to Dr Bell can be viewed at:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/ConsultantPsychiatristDrPaulBell/3November2018/RegisteredLetter.html

The main reason I'm writing to you is because I included in my November 3rd 2018 letter to Dr Bell the piece of text just below, which I found on your MSM LAW Web Site; and, I did so in the hope that Dr Bell might somehow be able to use it on my behalf in a way which would help me.

"The Human Rights Act and the European Convention on Human Rights, along with other instruments, can be utilised to offer protection and facilitate enforcement of your rights. All public bodies who carry out public functions such as the Police and Hospitals must comply with the Human Rights Act."

The MSM LAW text just above appears in Section 6 of my above-mentioned November 3rd 2018 letter to Dr Bell.

Also, in Section 6 of my November 3rd 2018 letter to Dr Bell, I referred to ARTICLE 47 of the CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION. I did so because, correctly or otherwise, I have long believed that it should be possible -- with the help of a professional lawyer who recognises and supports (in practical ways) human rights law and constitutional law -- to be provided with an "effective remedy" within a reasonable period of time for the overall set of closely related problems of mine set out in my November 3rd 2018 letter to Dr Bell.

If I am in error regarding the "effective remedy" belief of mine referred to in the paragraph immediately above, it would be much appreciated if you could advise me accordingly please. If you believe I am in error, a brief explanation as to why, would also be greatly appreciated.

Regarding your fees, should you, or one of your MSM LAW colleagues perhaps, decide to help me, I understand that the fact I am receiving "Pension Credit" payments might help to make me eligible for the granting of "Legal aid", which is also very clearly referred to in the text of Article 47 of CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION.

Finally, I feel I should also point out that for several years now I have also been experiencing enormous difficulty with trying to find professional legal representation of the kind which recognises and supports (in practical ways) human rights law, and constitutional law. Evidence of this can be seen in the "His efforts to secure proper legal representation has been thwarted at every turn" statement contained in the letter dated December 13th 2005 written by Senior Social Worker Gerard Madden to former Northern Ireland Justice Minister David Hanson MP, a scanned copy of which can be viewed at:

Yours sincerely,



William Finnerty.
