Article 42. Supervision over the performance of duties by guardians and trustees

Supervision over the performance of duties by guardians and trustees shall be carried out by the guardianship and trusteeship bodies at the place of residence of the persons under guardianship or trusteeship, or of the guardians or trustees.

Persons under guardianship or trusteeship have the right to lodge complaints with the relevant guardianship and trusteeship body or with a court against actions (inaction) of the guardian or trustee.

Persons who become aware of an immediate threat to the life or health of persons under guardianship or trusteeship, or of a violation of their rights, freedoms and lawful interests, must inform the guardianship and trusteeship body at the actual location of the person under guardianship or trusteeship, or law-enforcement bodies. Upon receiving such information, the guardianship and trusteeship bodies and law-enforcement bodies must take necessary measures to protect the rights, freedoms and lawful interests of the person under guardianship or trusteeship.
