Safeguards
• “Measures related to the exercise”
– Read together with other provisions, this must
refer to support and not to restrictive measures
– With equal legal capacity, and the obligation to
respect the rights, will and preferences of the
person, support cannot be imposed against a
person’s will
– Safeguards should be understood to refer to wide
range of support, and tailored appropriately - need
to ensure that PWD using support are not over-
protected compared with non-PWD using similar
support.
