The new Act covers a wide range of issues but broadly they can be arranged under four headings: principles, roles and responsibilities: how the Act defines the nature, duties and powers of the organisations and individuals involved in mental health law and how they should give effect to the principles of the Act; compulsory powers: how the Act sets out the circumstances in which a person with mental disorder may receive treatment and/or be detained on a compulsory basis, and the procedures which have to be followed; people with mental disorder within the criminal justice system: what the Act says about how a person with mental disorder may be dealt with by the criminal justice system, and how they are subsequently cared for; and rights and safeguards: the additional rights the Act gives to a person with mental disorder, and the safeguards it puts in place.
