Guardianship (Missing Persons) Act 2017

Expiry of period of appointment of a guardian

5(1)This paragraph applies where—

(a)a guardianship order appoints two or more guardians, and

(b)a guardian’s period of appointment expires.

(2)The order is not revoked under section 14(1)(d) if the period of appointment of another guardian appointed under the order has not expired.

(3)But section 15(2) applies in relation to a person who deals with the guardian mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b) after that guardian’s period of appointment expires as if the guardianship order had been revoked under section 14(1)(d) on the expiry of that period.
