"Practitioners are encouraged to consult with otherhealth practitioners involved in the patient’s care andseek medicolegal advice from their insurer or indemnifier if they desire. Any decisions, and the reasons for them,should be carefully documented on the clinical record incase the practitioner(s) are subsequently called upon tojustify their actions."

Actually that screams to me that the police are implying if the doctor says someone is fit for a firearm then they subsequently say kill someone then the police may hold the doctor liable.

If I were a doctor I would refuse to provide any information, which will likely mean people won't get licenses.
