When written consent not sufficient authority
19 When written consent not sufficient authority
A document that purports to be a consent given in accordance with section 8, 9 or 13 (1) is not sufficient authority for a doctor to remove tissue if—
the doctor has been informed that the consent has been revoked; or
the doctor knows or has reasonable grounds for suspecting that a certificate given for section 10 or 13 (2), as the case may be, in relation to that document contains a false statement; or
for a document that purports to be a consent given in accordance with section 13 (1)—the doctor has been informed that the child is no longer in agreement with the removal and transplantation of the tissue.
A document that purports to be an order of the kind mentioned in section 16A is not sufficient authority for a doctor to remove tissue if the doctor has been informed that the order has been revoked.
