          plans  for discharge and conditional release of patients to the commu-

     1    Section  1.  Paragraph  5  of  subdivision (g) of section 29.15 of the
     2  mental hygiene law, as added by chapter 306 of  the  laws  of  1995,  is
     3  amended and a new paragraph 6 is added to read as follows:
     4    [(5)  an]  5. An evaluation of the patient's need and potential eligi-

    10  of the patient, to an authorized representative who has actively partic-
    11  ipated  in  the  patient's  treatment plan. Such information may only be
    12  provided if the director of the facility and  such  facility's  clinical

    14  ation and assessment, that there is the  presence  of  a  mental  health
    15  diagnosis  or  symptoms  of  a  mental illness exhibited by the patient,
    16  which indicates the patient may be at substantial risk of physical  harm
    17  to  himself  or  herself, or has made threats of or attempts at suicide.
    18  Such determination and the basis for it shall be included in the written
    19  clinical record.
    20    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
