The government has advertised the appointment of 11 non-official members who will constitute the body. The advertised roles include one psychiatrist, one clinical psychologist, one psychiatric social worker, one mental health professional and one mental health nurse, positions deemed crucial to the formation of the authority functional under the Mental Healthcare Act, 2017.

"Once the authority is constituted, it would constitute review boards for cases and for formation of guidelines," a health official said.
