The Human Rights Commission submission to the select committee stated that "The Code of Rights presumes every person to be competent to give informed consent unless reasonable grounds for believing otherwise. Where a person is not competent to give informed consent, a legal guardian or person holding an enduring power of attorney may consent on their behalf. Where there is no one available to consent on the consumer's behalf, a health practitioner is guided to consult a suitably experienced colleague before proceeding." While the Code of Rights may stipulate this, the bill contains no guidelines whatsoever related to the processes to be followed in the case of an inability to consent, and that is a real risk for vulnerable women. This amendment will ensure past and present views are fully taken into account and are facilitated as much as possible.
