摘要
The Canter et al. (1997) study on under-reporting of suicide raises many important issues. Previous studies have raised similar concerns. This is particularly relevant because the government of Ireland appointed a Task Force on Suicide which is currently deliberating on all aspects of suicide and attempted suicide. This comment concludes that there is a greater need to clarify the problem of under-reporting of suicide in Ireland.
