The Court of Protection is an active jurisdiction – with many cases publishing judgments with important clarifications and expansions on the key principles under the Mental Capacity Act 2005. In 2023, we may also see significant changes to the Code of Practice to the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and deprivation of liberty.
In this session, Rhys Hadden from Serjeants’ Inn Chambers considered:
- key case law and important updates from the past 12 months;
- any updates on the revisions to the Code of Practice to the Mental Capacity Act 2005; and
- what is the latest with the Liberty Protection Safeguards?
Rhys Hadden specialises in all matters relating to mental capacity and mental health. Rhys also sits as a Judge in the First Tier Tribunal Health, Education and Social Care Chamber on mental health matters.
