| Annotation | The risk of financial abuse is a major concern for the Public Guardianship Office (PGO) and the Court of Protection. Master Lush (Master of the Court of Protection) has suggested that some 10-15% of cases brought to the Court involve some element of abuse or impropriety. The study reported here analysed case files identified by PGO staff as those in which abuse was a strong possibility. (RH). |
