Part 3The criteria for authorisation

Criteria for requirement to attend for treatment

11

In relation to the imposition on P of a requirement to attend at a particular place at particular times or intervals for the purpose of being given particular treatment that would or might be treatment with serious consequences, the criteria for authorisation are that—

a

failure to impose such a requirement would be more likely than not to result in P’s not receiving the treatment;

b

P lacks capacity in relation to whether he or she should attend for the purpose of being given the treatment at the place and times or intervals concerned; and

c

a requirement to attend for that purpose at the place and times or intervals concerned would be in P’s best interests.
