95 Powers of attorney made under Medical Treatment
Act 1994
(1) This section applies to a power of attorney made under the Medical
Treatment Act 1994 that was in force immediately before the
commencement of this Act.
(2) The power of attorney is taken to be an enduring power of attorney
made under this Act for a health care matter.
(3) However, if the power of attorney complied with the Medical
Treatment Act 1994 when made, the power of attorney is not taken to
be invalid only because it does not comply with a provision of this
Act about the making of powers of attorney.
