Course Overview

The Government’s 5th April announcement that LPS will be “delayed beyond the life of this parliament ”has left many wondering what that means and how this will impact on their organisation in the short to mid-term.

This course will help you and your organisation reflect on what has been learned from the attempts to implement the Liberty Protection Safeguards, and consider how those lessons can be used to effectively and lawfully continue to implement the DoLS system; whilst also preparing for the potential implementation of LPS at some point in the future

Key Learning Outcomes Include: 

• Consider the MCA/ DoLS legal landscape as it looks after the 5th April 2023 announcement.
• Consider the place all relevant organisations now have within that landscape.
• Identify what is in place which can be used to improve the DoLS system.
• Discuss plans for the short to mid-term future.
• Discuss what may happen “beyond the life of this parliament”.
• Identify what training will be needed, and for whom, to address the DoLS authorisation backlog.
• Identify how this training can be delivered within your organisation.
