Can a deputy resign or be removed from their role?
Yes, a deputy may apply to resign with stated reasons as to how this would be in P’s best interests, and the Court can remove a deputy if they fail to act in P's best interests or breach their duties.
The Office of the Public Guardian can also recommend removal following investigations.
