218A: Temporary modification relating to powers of attorney and outbreak of COVID-19

You could also call this:

“Special rules for giving others power to make decisions during COVID-19 (no longer used)”

This part of the law was about powers of attorney during the COVID-19 outbreak. It was a temporary change to the rules. The government removed this section on 30 June 2021, so it no longer applies. Powers of attorney are when you give someone else the right to make decisions for you. During COVID-19, there were special rules about this, but those rules are not in use anymore.
