Grammar
Under the remit?
Does "under the remit" mean "under the power/at the mercy"?
Context:
Define suicide as a distinct disorder. Treatment of the mental disorders commonly associated with suicide, such as depression, fails to prevent suicidal behaviour in most people. Although suicidality touches different medical and psychosocial disciplines, it should come under the remit of psychiatry, which being at the crossroads of mind and brain is well positioned to appraise all dimensions. Psychiatry should take responsibility for defining suicidality adequately, incorporating it in classification systems, developing ratings scales to predict and assess severity and examining treatment options. This will make suicidal behaviour visible as a mental disorder.
