Variation and revocation of guardianship orders

13Revocation of guardianship order

(1)The court may make an order revoking a guardianship order, on an application or without an application being made.

(2)If a guardian has reasonable grounds to believe that the person whose property or financial affairs are the subject of the guardianship order is no longer missing, the guardian must apply to the court as soon as reasonably practicable for the revocation of the order.

(3)The court may revoke a guardianship order only if it is satisfied that—

(a)the person whose property or financial affairs are the subject of the guardianship order is no longer missing, or

(b)in all the circumstances, revocation is in the missing person’s best interests (see section 18),

(and see also sections 19 and 20).

(4)The court must send a copy of an order revoking a guardianship order to the Public Guardian.
