Archived reports

The Section regularly reviews its reports, on average every 3 years, to ensure that our guidance and recommendations are up to date and in line with medical, scientific advances and changing social, economic and political settings. As a result, some reports published in the past may become obsolete or subsumed into wider UEMS publications. For the sake of continuity, we decided to create this archive page to store the reports withdrawn from wider circulation.

The UEMS European Board of Psychiatry was established in 1992. In 2012 the Board and the Section were merged into one body to ensure that training and professional development remained at the core of the business.

This report was archived at the Section and Board of Psychiatry spring meeting in Vienna, April 2006. Although the underpinning principles of mental health legislation recommended in this 2001 report are still largely valid, the data that informed the report was collected in 1998 and is now of limited value. The repeat of a Europe-wide survey of mental health legislation is beyond the Section’s resources. It has been decided instead to focus on one, most relevant, aspect of such legislation, i.e. the principles underlying compulsory treatment in the community, including recent research in this particular field. This work was commenced in October 2006 and a position statement will be produced in due course.
