I move amendment No. 13:

In page 13, after line 40, to insert the following:“(c) in relation to a decision made, or to be made, by a court on behalf of a relevant person, means a decision on a matter the subject of the decision-making order and which falls within the scope of that order,”.

Amendment No. 13 inserts a new paragraph in the definition of "relevant decision" to include decisions made by the court on behalf of the relevant person. This was omitted in error from the Bill as published.

Amendment No. 16 substitutes amended text into the definition of "relevant decision". The amended text clarifies that a relevant decision includes decisions made under an advanced health care directive irrespective of whether there is a designated health care representative.
