What types of decisions can my donee make on my behalf?

Updated by MSF 7 found this helpful

Your Donee may be authorised to make decisions regarding:

  • Personal welfare (including healthcare decisions)

  • Property & affairs (including financial matters)

  • Specific powers as indicated in your LPA


There are two versions of LPA available:

  1. LPA Form 1 contains mostly checkboxes for Donors to grant general powers to their Donees with the option to select basic conditions or restrictions to these powers. This form can be self-completed by the Donors.

  2. LPA Form 2 contains mostly free text spaces where individuals can give specific powers to their needs. This form is to be drafted by a lawyer.
