Application made under section 15 of the 2005 Act for a declaration determining whether it is in the best interests of Mrs. N to receive life sustaining treatment by means of Clinically Assisted Nutrition and Hydration currently provided through a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube. M, her daughter, strongly believes that the continuation of this intervention is contrary to her mother’s best interests.
