Mental Health Act 2014
Section 542

Introduction
Section 542 of the Mental Health Act 2014 provides for the Governor, by order published in the Western Australian Government Gazette to authorise a public hospital or part of a public hospital to be an ‘authorised hospital’ for the purposes of reception and admission of patients requiring involuntary treatment and care.
Section 541 provides for a private hospital whose license is endorsed under section 26DA(2) of the Hospitals and Health Services Act 1927 to be an ‘authorised hospital’ on the recommendation by/of the Chief Psychiatrist, for the reception and admission of patients requiring involuntary treatment and care.
Please Note: Grant of Leave under section 105(1)(a)(ii) of the Mental Health Act 2014 from an Authorised part of a Hospital to a Non-Authorised part of a Hospital Subdivision 2 of Division 6 of Part 7 of the Mental Health Act 2014 provides for the granting of leave for an involuntary detained patient from an authorised hospital. Section 105 (1)(a)(ii) provides specifically for leave to be granted to a General Hospital for a patient who requires medical or surgical treatment or treatment likely to benefit the inpatient’s physical health in some other way.
When an authorised hospital is within a general hospital campus and an involuntary inpatient needs to be treated in the general part of the hospital it is as though it is leave being granted from the authorised facility to the general hospital, despite the fact that both hospitals (authorised and general) are within the same grounds.
