Venue: SAL, Marina 1,2 & 3, The Adelphi #07-01, 1 Coleman Street (S179803)Community Law in Focus is a series of events seminars that offers audiences an insightful exploration of key areas in community law. The series opens with Academy Publishing’s newest publication, The Mental Capacity Act in Singapore: Law and Practice by Dr Colin Tan (NUS), Mr Chong Yue-En (Bethel Chambers), Mr Allen Sng Kiat Peng (NUS), and Mr Tan Kah Wai (LVM Law Chambers).
To mark the 15th anniversary of the enactment of the Singapore Mental Capacity Act (MCA), this seminar will delve into the legal framework designed to protect individuals aged 21 and above who lack the mental capacity to make decisions independently.
The four authors aim to provide a clear and practical understanding of the Act’s provisions and its evolving role in an ageing and more inclusive society. Key topics include assessing mental capacity, appointing decision-makers, and the safeguards in place to ensure the welfare and best interests of vulnerable individuals.
