I move amendment No. 247:

In page 65, between lines 17 and 18, to insert the following:“(d) the terms of an advance healthcare directive made by the relevant person—
(i) that does not provide for a designated healthcare representative, or, where it does provide for a designated healthcare representative, the powers of the designated healthcare representative do not extend to the action concerned, and

(ii) the relevant person lacks capacity.”.
