    Definition document appointing a person (an ‘Attorney’) to manage the property and financial affairs of another person (the ‘Donor’) Reference Office of the Public Guardian. A guide to Enduring Powers of Attorney, EPA101, downloaded from GOV.UK > Forms and guidance to register an enduring power of attorney (EPA), https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/register-an-enduring-power-of-attorney [21.8.2013]
    Comment If the Donor becomes unable to make financial decisions, the EPA must be registered before it can be used or, if it is already in use, before it can continue to be used.New EPAs can no longer be created. However if a person has an EPA made before October 2007, either registered or unregistered, it can continue to be used.Lasting powers of attorney (LPAs) [ IATE:3551156 ] have now replaced EPAs, which only allowed people to appoint Attorneys to make decisions about property and financial matters on their behalf. The new LPAs give more protection and extra options.If someone has already made an EPA and still has capacity, they can either replace it with a new Property and Affairs LPA or can keep the existing EPA. They can also make an additional LPA for personal welfare decisions. The Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) [ IATE:3551154 ] can provide information about the options available.
