1 Les cantons désignent la ou les autorités de surveillance.
2 Le Conseil fédéral peut édicter des dispositions en matière de surveillance.
1 The adult protection authority at the place of residence of the client has jurisdiction. In pending proceedings, the same authority retains jurisdiction until the case has been concluded.
2 In urgent cases, the authority where the client is actually residing has jurisdiction. If this authority carries out a measure, it shall notify the authority in the client's normal place of residence.
3 In the case of a deputyship due to absence, the authority at the place where the majority of the assets have been managed or have been transferred to the client has jurisdiction.
4 The cantons are entitled to declare the authority in the client's place of origin rather than place of residence to have jurisdiction over citizens of the canton who are resident in the canton, provide the commune of origin is wholly or partly responsible for supporting persons in need.
5 If a person subject to a measure changes place of residence, the authority at the new place shall take responsibility for the measure immediately, unless there is good cause for not doing so.
