The Mental Capacity Act 2005 provides a statutory framework for
acting and making decisions on behalf of individuals who lack the
mental capacity to do so for themselves. It introduced a number of
laws to protect these individuals and ensure that they are given
every chance to make decisions for themselves. The Act has recently
been supplemented with new provisions pertaining to those who need
to be accommodated under care and treatment regimes that may have
the effect of depriving them of their liberty, but who lack the
capacity to consent. This Code of Practice provides guidance and
information for professionals implementing the deprivation of
liberty safeguards legislation on a daily basis. In some cases,
this will be paid staff, in others, those who have been appointed
by law to represent individuals who lack capacity to make decisions
for themselves (such as deputies or donees of a Lasting Power of
Attorney).The Code incorporates good practice and demonstrates how
the principles of the Act can be applied to those who have been
deprived of their liberty for their own safety, or for the safety
of others.
