| Annotation | The Public Guardianship Office (PGO) provides protection to people who lack mental capacity by registering enduring powers of attorney and overseeing the work of receivers appointed by the Court of Protection to look after the financial affairs of people once they have lost mental capacity. This report examines the PGO's targeting of risk; and the steps it is taking to improve service quality and to raise the public's awareness of the Office's role. (RH). |
