OTHER WELFARE SERVICES
(a) Receivership
The Chief Welfare Officer has been appointed as the officer of the
Borough Council responsible to act in matters of receivership. A receivership
is required where, after considering medical evidence, the Court of Protection
is satisfied that a person is incapable of managing and administering his property
and affairs. The appointment of a receiver is at the discretion of the Court
and it may happen that although the Council take action to secure a receivership,
the Chief Welfare Officer is not appointed as receiver.
The Chief Welfare Officer is acting as receiver in two cases and there
are two other cases being considered by the Court of Protection.
