My Chambers have launched a new and zippy version of our website. But don’t worry, all the content that you might need – our Reports, our case-law summaries, and our guidance notes – can all still be found via here.
We know (flatteringly) that many of our materials are embedded on websites; the old links should automatically redirect to the new page, but do please let us know if you encounter difficulties. This is also perhaps a useful opportunity to flag that it is always best to link to the webpage which houses a guidance note, rather than a PDF of the guidance note, as we update them regularly, and linking to the PDF may inadvertently trap you in a time warp.
For quick reference, our key guidance notes are:
General
MCA / DoLS Codes of Practice update
Capacity
Assessment and recording of capacity
Relevant information for different categories of decision
Best interests
Determining and recording best interests
Deprivation of liberty
Judicial authorisation of deprivation of liberty (‘Community DoL’)
Deprivation of liberty and those under 18
