enquiry into OPG Power of Attorney laws/rules & police responses to POA abuse

Summary

Commission an independent enquiry into the gap between OPG rules on the use and misuse of Power of Attorney and the inconsistent responses of police forces when POA‑related financial abuse is reported. Create clear national standards for investigating POA misuse. OPG rules set clear safeguards for how attorneys must act, how revocation must be respected, and how concerns about misuse should be handled. Families across the UK report that police responses vary widely, with POA misuse often treated as a civil matter. This inconsistency leaves vulnerable adults at risk. National standards are needed
