What does the bill do?
It was further provided that a payment service provider approached by a guardian to receive these services will not refuse the request, and will not make providing the service conditional on terms that are unreasonable in the circumstances only because the account is that of a person for whom a guardian was appointed. These provisions were also applied to a holder of a power of attorney, so that they can act in the same way with regard to the person who appointed them.
