Principles of Liberty Protection Safeguards (Mental Capacity Amendment Act 2019)

»LPS are designed to give prominence to the issues of the person’s human rights and whether a deprivation of their liberty is necessary and proportionate at the stage at which arrangements are being devised.

»The decision-making process requires a formal assessment that the deprivation of liberty is justified.

»Considering whether a deprivation of liberty is proportionate involves considering whether there is a less intrusive alternative.

»The Mental Capacity Amendment Act 2019 places emphasis on consultation with the ‘cared for person’ and all other relevant people.

»Retains the requirement for an appropriate person or Independent Mental Capacity Advocate to be used.

»The Mental Capacity Amendment Act amends the Mental Capacity Act 2005 to make it an express requirement that so far as reasonably practicable the person’s wishes and feelings must be ascertained. There is an additional requirement to explain any decision not to give effect to the person’s wishes and feelings.
