(This note is not part of the Rules)

These Rules replace the Court of Protection (Enduring Powers of Attorney) Rules 1986. They are supplemental to the Court of Protection Rules 1994 (S.I. 1994/ .) They regulate the procedure in respect of applications under the Enduring Powers of Attorney Act 1985 and provide for the division of functions between the Court of Protection and the Public Trustee. Schedule 2 restates the fees payable in connection with an application for registration of an enduring power of attorney and an application for a search of the register.
