12B Requirements as to mental treatment.
1
Where a court which proposes to make a supervision order is satisfied, on the evidence of a medical practitioner approved for the purposes of section 12 of the M2 Mental Health Act 1983, that the mental condition of a supervised person is such as requires and may be susceptible to treatment but is not such as to warrant his detention in pursuance of a hospital order under Part III of that Act, the court may include in the supervision order a requirement that the supervised person shall, for a period specified in the order, submit to treatment of one of the following descriptions so specified, that is to say—
a
treatment by or under the direction of a fully registered medical practitioner specified in the order;
b
treatment as a non-resident patient at a place specified in the order; or
c
treatment as a resident patient in a hospital or mental nursing home within the meaning of the said Act of 1983, but not a special hospital within the meaning of that Act.
2
A requirement shall not be included in a supervision order in pursuance of subsection (1) above—
a
in any case, unless the court is satisfied that arrangements have been or can be made for the treatment in question and, in the case of treatment as a resident patient, for the reception of the patient;
b
in the case of an order made or to be made in respect of a person who has attained the age of 14, unless he consents to its inclusion;
and a requirement so included shall not in any case continue in force after the supervised person becomes 18.
