Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Power of Attorney Act. Provides that an agent shall provide a copy of certain records required to be kept when requested to do so by a representative of the public guardian for the county in which the principal resides acting in the course of investigating whether to file a petition for guardianship. Adds public guardians to the list of entities which may be awarded fees, costs, and other relief for failure to provide a requested record or after a finding that the agent's action has caused substantial harm to the principal's person or property. Adds public guardians to the definition of "interested person".

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of the introduced bill, but makes the following changes: (1) provides that the provisions are also applicable to the State Guardian; and (2) provides that the Act is effective immediately.
