1 ACCESS TO MEDICAL RECORDS.
2 Dorset Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust v MH (2009) : A full disclosure of all relevant material should generally be given and should not present a problem in the vast majority of cases. The burden will be on the responsible authority to demonstrate that it is appropriate to withhold disclosure of any particular documents.
3 Rule 14 -Tribunal Procedure Rules 2008 Code of Practice Mental Health Act 1983 Paragraph 1 - enables the Tribunal to make an order prohibiting the disclosure or publication of a) specified documents or information relating to the proceedings; or b) any matter likely to lead members of the public to identify any person whom the Tribunal considers should not be identified. Paragraph 2 states that an order prohibiting disclosure can only be made if the tribunal is satisfied that the disclosure would be likely to cause serious harm to that person or another and that it is proportionate to make such an order in the interest of justice.
4 Rule 14 -Tribunal Procedure Rules 2008 Code of Practice Mental Health Act 1983 Paragraph 3 - if a party considers that the Tribunal should give a direction prohibiting the disclosure of a document or information to another party, the first party must: a) exclude the relevant document or information from any document or information from any documents that will be provided to the second party and b) provide to the Tribunal the excluded document or information, and the reason for its exclusion, so that the Tribunal may decide whether the document or information should be disclosed to the second party or should be the subject of a direction under paragraph 2.
5 Reasons for requesting the tribunal to exclude a document or information must be provided: Paragraph 5 - Tribunal may give a direction that information be disclosed to a patient's representative if satisfied that the i) disclosure to the representative would be in the interests of the party and ii) the representative will act in accordance with Paragraph 6. Paragraph 6 - documents disclosed to a representative must not be disclosed to any other person without the Tribunal's consent.
6 Reasons for requesting the tribunal to exclude a document or information must be provided: Paragraph 6 continued Where a responsible authority seeks to avoid disclosure to the patient's representative, it should submit a skeleton argument setting out the reasons for non disclosure and specify the document in question. The skeleton argument should be served on the patient's solicitor's to give them an opportunity to respond in writing. An application to the Tribunal will be necessary where the exchange of skeleton argument does not resolve the issue.
7 Paragraph 6 continued In most instances an application should be determined by the Tribunal on the day of the substantive hearing. In exceptional cases, it would be appropriate for the matter to be considered and determined by a single judge in advance of the substantive hearing. If the Tribunal agree to non-disclosure and the other party wishes to appeal against the decision the Tribunal should provide brief reasons for their decision. The time limit for appealing the decision on a point of law is determined by the date when the Tribunal's reasons is sent.
8 Human Right Act 1998 & Case Law Article 8: patient's right to respect for his private life will be interfered with if a tribunal decides not to disclose a document of information to the patient. RM v St Andrews Healthcare (2010) when considering the interest of justice test rule 14(2) the key test to apply is whether or not non disclosure of the document or information would allow the patient to make an effective challenge to his detention.
