The purpose of the inspection was to follow up the concerns raised at the Mental Health Act scheduled visit on the 23 January 2017 of Twyneham ward by Mental Health Act reviewers.

The concern raised from the Mental Health Act visit was patients who failed to attend the 9.00am meeting or groups held on the ward lost all or parts of their leave and that patients perceived the withholding of leave as punitive.
