This book explores the human rights consequences of recent and ongoing revisions of mental health legislation in England and Ireland. The author uses the checklist of the WHO Resource Book on Mental Health, Human Rights and Legislation as a framework for analysis, and considers recent case-law from the ECHR, as well as the implications of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The author focuses on dignity, human rights and mental health law to evaluate to what extent the human rights of the mentally ill have been protected and promoted.
