Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Rules)

These Rules amend the Court of Protection (Enduring Powers of Attorney) Rules 2001 (S.I. 2001/825) so as to substitute a new version of Form EP2, the form prescribed for an application to the court to register an enduring power of attorney. The new version of Form EP2 adds the relationship of civil partner to the parts of the form where the attorneys are required to specify their relationship to the donor. Rule 3 allows applications to be made in the Form EP2 substituted by these Rules until 1st April 2007.
