SPT and CRPD Ten Years On Peter Bartlett Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust Professor of Mental Health Law School of Law and Institute of Mental Health University of Nottingham
A Substantive Problem
Thinking About the CRPD is it all about deinstitutionalisation?
Art 14:behind the criticism Justifications for detention based on mental disability: Capacity Dangerousness Need for treatment protection
Framework for moving forward Status quo not an option – but disability not a trump card This is not a word game Engagement with Committee view Consider convention as a whole
Way Forward? Staged implementation – how enforce? How keep heat on? Ongoing need to ensure that remaining institutions meet standards Deinstitutionalisation – but risk of virtual institutions – new role for inspectorates?
Thank-you.
