An annual statistics report on the use of the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000. The report examines the geographic variations in the use of welfare guardianship, the age and diagnosis of people placed on guardianship, the duration of guardianship orders applied for by applicant, variations in indefinite orders by age and diagnosis, and geographic variations in orders approved on an indefinite basis. It shows that the number of new and existing orders continued to rise although there was a further significant reduction in the granting of orders on an indefinite basis. The percentage of orders granted where the cause of the adult’s incapacity was dementia fell to 45 per cent, down from 46 per cent the previous year. Conversely, there was an increase from 41 per cent to 44 per cent of orders where the incapacity was caused by a learning disability, reflecting a continuing trend over the past several years where welfare guardianship is being used for an increasingly younger population.
