GJ v The Foundation Trust and Another: FD 20 Nov 2009

The statutory provisions of the 2007 Act for review of standard authorisations were matters that the Court of Protection should take into account in determining whether it should make an order authorising the deprivation of P’s liberty, and if so the extent and period of such an authorisation having regard to the authorities relating to the need for review of a deprivation of liberty based on the exercise of the inherent jurisdiction. One of the jurisdictional issues remaining unresolved as ‘what, if any, inherent jurisdiction the Court of Protection has and whether the High Court retains its inherent jurisdiction in this area or whether it has been suspended by the MCA.’
