DEPRIVATION OF LIBERTY FORM No. 11
RECORD THAT AN EQUIVALENT ASSESSMENT IS BEING USED
STANDARD AUTHORISATION PROCEDURE
In certain circumstances, it may not be necessary to carry out one or more of the six assessments
usually required for a standard authorisation. This form should be used to record that a previous
equivalent assessment has been used instead.
Where a previous assessment is relied on, it is treated as having been carried out in connection
with the current request for a standard authorisation. Because it stands in place of the one usually
now required, it must be copied to the people entitled to receive copies of the assessments used in
connection with the current request for a standard authorisation.
Any equivalent assessments being used should be securely attached to this form.
