(1) The Children’s Court may, for the purposes of an assessment order, appoint a person to assess the capacity of a person with parental responsibility, or who is seeking parental responsibility, for a child or young person to carry out that responsibility.
(2) Such an assessment may be carried out only with the consent of the person whose capacity is to be assessed.
(3) This Division applies to such an assessment in the same way as it applies to the assessment of a child or young person.
