Function:  The previous Review Board for Psychiatric Facilities (Psychiatric Review Board) established in the late 1960s, was reconstituted as the Consent and Capacity Board. The primary responsibility of the board continues to be the review of involuntary status in psychiatric facilities. The board holds hearings under the Mental Health Act, the Health Care Consent Act and the Substitute Decisions Act. The board is an independent tribunal headed by a full-time chair and nine part-time regional vice-chairs. Most hearing panels are made up of a lawyer, a psychiatrist and a community member.

Hearings may be held for the review of capacity to consent to a treatment, admission to a care facility or a personal assistance service; for consideration of the appointment of a representative to make decisions for an incapable person with respect to treatment, admission to a care facility or a personal assistance service; for consideration of a request to amend or terminate the appointment of a representative; for review of a decision to admit an incapable person to a hospital, psychiatric facility, nursing home or home for the aged for the purpose of treatment; for consideration of a request from a substitute decision maker for directions regarding wishes; for consideration of a request from a substitute decision maker for authority to depart from prior capable wishes and for review of a substitute decision maker's compliance with the rules for substitute decision making.

Under the Mental Health Act, hearings may be held for the review of involuntary status (civil committal); for review as to whether a young person (ages 12 to 15) requires observation, care and treatment in a psychiatric facility; for review of a finding of incapacity to manage property; for review of a finding of incompetence to access or allow others to access the clinical record; for consideration of the appointment of a representative for the purpose of access to or disclosure of records and for consideration of a request from a psychiatric facility to withhold access to a clinical record. Under the Substitute Decisions Act hearings may be held for the review of statutory guardianship for property.

Membership:  Members are appointed by the Lieutenant Governor in Council who designates one member as chair and one or more others as vice-chairs. The chair is the chief executive officer of the board.

Term:  There is no limitation in legislation.

Meetings:  Board members participate in a minimum of three proceedings/hearings per month. Lawyer members prepare Reasons for Decision when requested; by statute, these must be prepared within two business days of the request and, on average, require approximately three hours of work. Members usually attend hearings within their residential geographic area.
