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
Link to MH Bill 2006
New: Regional Chairman's manual
