Mr. Diego Castillo Goncalves:

In Canada, for instance, there are provisions in respect of admission of children who are under 16 and who would either have capacity or not have capacity but would be admitted without being an involuntary detention admission. There are other examples that we can look at in regard to the UK when it comes to the admission of children who are under 16 and who, due to their evolving capacity, actually have the capacity to consent, even if that is not a presumption of capacity in the first instance.
