Join Alex Ruck Keene QC (Hon), Barrister at 39 Essex Chambers and author of the Mental Capacity Law and Policy blog, and Emma Harrison, Senior Solicitor at Devon County Council and LLG National Lead for Adult Social Care and Health, as they evaluate how the Liberty Protection Safeguards might work in reality in the light of the publication of the draft Code of Practice. They will outline and examine how key aspects of the LPS regime differ from the DOLS and in which regards it will remain the same and consider the operation of the ‘acid test’ established in the Cheshire West decision of the Supreme Court when the LPS are in force.
