<dc:description>This Order brings into force the provisions of the Mental Health Act 2007 (c.12) (“the 2007 Act”) that repeal the provisions relating to after-care under supervision in the Mental Health Act 1983 (c.20) (“the 1983 Act”). The Order also makes transitional provision for patients subject to after-care under supervision immediately prior to that date. The Order provides for a transitional period of six months in which the status of the patient as being subject to after-care under supervision is maintained, and requires, within that period, the patient to be examined by his or her community responsible medical officer to determine whether the patient should be detained for assessment or treatment, made subject to guardianship, placed on a community treatment order or should cease to be subject to after-care under supervision.</dc:description>
