I have had legislation introduced in the Seanad on 30 June last to update the law with regard to ordinary powers of attorney and also to provide for a new type of power of attorney to take effect if the donor should become mentally incapable. This Bill — the Powers of Attorney Bill, 1995 — is currently at Second Stage in that House.
