The main law relating to mental health in Powys, and indeed, Wales, is the Mental Health Measure (Wales). You can read about this, and the strategies developed by Welsh Government and Powys teaching Health Board relating to mental health, on these pages.

There is also information about the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards.
