H.251 is a proposed bill introduced by Representative LaLonde of South Burlington that aims to establish a legal process for competency restoration for criminal defendants who have been found incompetent to stand trial. The bill emphasizes the importance of providing mental health treatment to these individuals while also ensuring the safety of the community.

The bill outlines a framework for the competency restoration process, although specific legal language regarding insertions or deletions from current law is not provided in the summary. The overall goal is to create a structured approach that balances the needs of defendants with mental health issues and the need for public safety.
