Dr Jude Halford declare the following:

I am a medical member of MHTS. If a new legal process were introduced around deprivation of liberty in Scotland then it is possible, but currently unlikely, that this could be administered by MHTS. If this happened then there would be an increase in central funding for MHTS. My talk would not influence this and MHTS has had no input into my talk. It is more likely that if such additional work occurred it would be through Scottish Courts not MHTS.
