The Department of Health and Social Care announced on the 5th April 2023 that the implementation of the Liberty Protection Safeguards would be delayed until at least the ‘next general election’, and while this has come to pass it is unclear if plans are in place to prepare for its post-election implementation. Even if the newly-formed government is keen to implement LPS, any reform will now be some years away.
With the delay to the Liberty Protection Safeguards it is more important than ever to ensure the existing scheme for deprivation of liberty works, including the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) and the role of the Court of Protection and High Court.
