To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to the Annual Report and Accounts of the Office of the Public Guardian 2014-15, page 22, for what reasons was the review of the Office’s fee structure put on hold at ministerial level.

Work to review the Office of the Public Guardian’s (OPG) fee structure is ongoing. Depending on the outcome of that work, a consultation will be published in due course if required.

No estimate has been made of the average cost to a user of OPG services of the over recovery of costs.
