Appeal Book Endorsement

[1] We see no basis upon which to interfere with the order of the Board. The Board declined to provide a term allowing for community living at the discretion of the Hospital. It did, however, include a very generous daily pass provision, again at the discretion of the Hospital.

[2] In our view, the order reflected the evidence of the treating psychiatrist and the Hospital team. The daily pass provision addresses concerns that the appellant might lose hope with the process and deteriorate. The order is not unreasonable.

[3] The appeal is dismissed.
