Law Commission of Ontario releases study papers on adult guardianship
In April 2013, the LCO issued a Call for Research Papers related to its project on Legal Capacity, Decision-making and Guardianship. The Call closed on June 30, 2013.
The LCO commissioned several papers in order to provide background research for its Legal Capacity, Decision-making and Guardianship project. This research will be taken into account in the LCO’s analysis and recommendations, along with other research, consultations and feedback to other published documents.
Four research papers have been completed through this Call for Papers, as follows:
