AI Overview
Yes, individuals on a forensic order are typically "locked" or detained, either in a secure mental health facility, a prison, or another authorised secure setting. The primary purpose of this detention is to ensure public safety while providing necessary treatment and care for their mental health or cognitive impairment.
Key Details
Detention: People subject to a forensic order have usually been charged with a serious offence but found to be unfit to stand trial or not criminally responsible due to a mental health or cognitive impairment. They are detained until a mental health review tribunal determines they no longer pose a serious risk to themselves or the public.
Location: Detention can occur in various facilities, including high-security forensic hospitals, medium-security mental health units, or even correctional centres, depending on the individual's needs and the availability of beds.
Supervision and Leave: The detention is managed and regularly reviewed by a body like the Mental Health Review Tribunal. The Tribunal can grant leave from the facility (e.g., supervised trips into the community), but only if satisfied that safety will not be seriously endangered.
Conditional Release: Forensic patients can eventually be conditionally released into the community under strict supervision, which may include conditions about residence, treatment, and substance use. If they breach these conditions or their mental state deteriorates, the Tribunal can order them to be detained again.
Indefinite Detention: In some cases, individuals with complex needs may face indefinite detention if they are deemed an ongoing serious risk, a practice that has drawn scrutiny from human rights bodies. |
