Definition: An enduring power of attorney (EPA) under English law is a legal authorisation to act on someone else's behalf in legal and financial matters which (unlike other kinds of power of attorney) can continue in force after the person granting it loses mental capacity, and so can be used to manage the affairs of people who have lost the ability to deal with their own affairs, without the need to apply to the Court of Protection.
Notes: Defnyddir yr acronym EPA yn y ddwy iaith. Ni cheir creu atwrneiaeth barhaus ar ôl mis Hydref 2007, er bod atwrneiaethau parhaus a wnaed cyn hynny yn dal mewn grym. Disodlwyd yr EPA gan yr atwrneiaeth arhosol (lasting power of attorney) yn 2007.

Welsh: atwrneiaeth arhosol
Status B
Subject: Legal
Part of speech: Noun, Feminine, Singular
Plural: atwreiaethau arhosol
Definition: Lasting powers of attorney (LPAs) in English law were created under the Mental Capacity Act 2005, and came into effect on 1 October 2007. The LPA replaced the former enduring powers of attorney (EPA) which were narrower in scope. Their purpose is to meet the needs of those who can see a time ahead when they will not be able – in the words of the Act, will lack capacity – to look after their own personal and financial affairs. The LPA allows them to make appropriate arrangements for family members or trusted friends to be authorised to make decisions on their behalf.
