Senate Amendment 001

Allows a supporter in a supported decision-making agreement to ascertain the wishes and decisions of the principal in order to advocate that the wishes and decisions of an individual with disabilities are implemented (rather than "ascertain the wishes and decisions of the principal, assist in communicating those wishes and decisions to other persons, and advocate to ensure that the wishes and decisions of the principal are implemented"). Requires the Guardianship and Advocacy Commission to develop training and education materials for both principals and supporters. Provides that the Act is effective 6 months after becoming law (rather than immediately).

House Amendment 002

Deletes language providing that a person against whom there has been a finding of abuse, neglect, or exploitation of the principal, a child, an elderly individual, or a person with a disability is disqualified from acting as a supporter. Instead disqualifies a person who is listed on the Health Care Worker Registry maintained by the Department of Public Health as ineligible to work. Deletes language providing that a person against whom the principal has obtained an order of protection is disqualified from acting as a supporter. Instead disqualifies an individual who is the subject of a civil or criminal order prohibiting contact with the principal. Deletes language providing that any interested party with a reasonable basis to believe that the supporter is abusing or neglecting the principal shall have the right to petition for the appointment of a limited temporary guardian and a guardian ad litem for the purpose of determining if the support decision-making agreement should be terminated.
