Details

You must write a report for the Office of the Public Guardian each year explaining the decisions you’ve made as a guardian.

It must include:

  • the reasons for your decisions and why they were in the person’s best interests
  • who you spoke to and what they said that was in the person’s best interests
  • the opening and closing balances and bank statements
  • payments and transfers in and out of their accounts
  • details of the person’s assets
  • any assets you bought or sold

The Office of the Public Guardian will tell you when to send your report and how to send it.

If you do not send the report, the Office of the Public Guardian might:

  • increase the amount of supervision you get
  • ask the court to replace you with a different guardian
