The New Zealand Health and Disability Services Standards define seclusion as it relates to the Mental Health (Compulsory Assessment and Treatment) Act 1992 “where a consumer is placed alone in a room or area, at any time and for any duration, from which they cannot freely exit”.

The strongest commitment a Government can make to protect the Human Rights of its citizens is to embed them in a constitution, and create statutory procedures to enforce the international standards. New Zealand has a good record of approving of and compliance with its international obligations.
