HL Deb 22 March 1995 vol 562 c73WA
Lord Brabazon of Tara

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What plans they have to implement the recommendations in the Law Commission's report on the Law of Trusts— Delegation by Individual Trustees (Law Com. No. 220).

The Lord Chancellor (Lord Mackay of Clashfern):

The Government have decided to accept the Law Commission's recommendations subject to one amendment, agreed with the Commission, which will ensure that there will be no need to renew an enduring power of attorney if the donor of the power has a beneficial as well as a fiduciary interest in the relevant property. The Government will introduce legislation to implement these proposals when a suitable legislative opportunity occurs.
