Mental Capacity Act (Northern Ireland) 2016

Section 141 - Search of person on exercise of power to remove

This section provides that when a person is informed that they are to be (or are being) removed to a place of safety, he or she is considered to be arrested for the purposes of Article 34 of PACE. Article 34 of PACE provides constables with certain search powers when arresting a person. Even if it has not been practicable to inform the person of their removal to a place of safety, the person will be considered for the purposes of carrying out a search under Article 34 of PACE as being arrested at the time it was decided to remove them from the public place to the place of safety.

This section also provides for a modification of Article 34 of PACE so that it can apply in these circumstances.
