An internet resource on mental health law in England & Wales, primarily for mental health practitioners, to which anyone can contribute.
There are currently three embryonic sections to this website which hopefully, given time, will develop into the following:
| Caselaw | Legislation | General information | ||
Regularly updated commentaries on the cases, with links to the full text judgments on Bailii. (Bailii contains nearly every judgment, but no specific commentary.) |
A simple and up-to-date commentary on the Mental Health Act 1983 and related legislation. |
General articles to explain the concepts and terminology used in the caselaw and legislation sections; and practical guidance for lawyers |
||
| New: R (O) v MHRT [2006] | New: Up-to-date MHA and Rules | New: Regional Chairman's manual |
