Just received the information pack from the Public Guardianship to register my mother's EPA.
I couldn't believe the section about notifying relatives. I have to inform 3 relatives. Two of which could include myself and my brother as attorneys and the third one to be taken from a list which included, children, grandchildren, brothers/sisters. Well she has no grandchildren and all her brothers and sisters died years ago. Which left the next category which was nieces and nephews. And from that category I have to inform all of them - not just one of them. How ridiculous is that!!!
Firstly I only know about three of them. We lost touch with the other eight or so and I don't even know where they are - let alone if they are still alive. I also don't see what business it is of relatives who she hardly speaks to. Plus what right do they have to object to the registration.
Has anyone else had this problem with registration?
