Give the OPG more powers to pursue/prosecute attorneys after revocation

Closed 63 signatures

What the petition asks

Whilst the OPG investigates attorneys for non-compliance, an attorney can revoke their powers. The OPG stops investigating and produces no report, frustrating efforts to protect vulnerable people. The OPG should be able to investigate after revocation; produce findings, and prosecute if necessary.
