— (1) The SSJ's refusal to grant permission for the [s47/49](https://www.mentalhealthlaw.co.uk/S47/49 "S47/49") patient to receive unescorted community leave, after the tribunal's decision under s74 that he no longer met the MHA detention criteria, was not unlawful. (2) The hospital and staff should remain anonymous but not the patient.
