Re D (A Child: deprivation of liberty) [2015] EWHC 922 (Fam)

(Redirected from Re D (A Child: deprivation of liberty) (2015) EWHC 922 (Fam), (2015) MHLO 33)
Parental responsibility and DOL "I am satisfied that the circumstances in which D is accommodated would amount to a deprivation of liberty but for his parents' consent to his placement there. I am satisfied that, on the particular facts of this case, the consent of D's parents to his placement at Hospital B, with all of the restrictions placed upon his life there, falls within the 'zone of parental responsibility'. In the exercise of their parental responsibility for D, I am satisfied they have and are able to consent to his placement. In the case of a young person under the age of 16, the court may, in the exercise of the inherent jurisdiction, authorise a deprivation of liberty."
