The new 6th edition of the Mental Capacity Act Manual helps ensure best practice compliance with the Mental Capacity Act 2005. It reproduces the full text of the Act with section-by-section annotations explaining its meaning and implications, now fully revised and updated.

It also explains the impact of all Regulations and guidance issued under the Act, and makes clear how the Act interacts with the Mental Health Act 2007. The 6th edition covers the latest case law and guidance, bringing together everything needed for up-to-date interpretation of the Act.

  • The complete guide to the Mental Capacity Act in practice
  • Explains how each person involved in the care of the mentally incapacitated is affected by the Act
  • Explains the core concept of "best interests" of a person covered by the Act and how it should be established
  • Outlines the role and responsibilities of the Court of Protection and explains its growing body of case law
  • Explains the scope of lasting powers of attorney and advance decisions
  • Clarifies the new "Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards" in light of the latest court decisions
  • Sets out the obligations of carers under the Act and in particular the obligation to assess capacity
  • Includes extensive quotations and references to the Code of Practice
  • Places the commentary immediately after the section of the Act to which it relates, ensuring it is easy to find the relevant guidance
