A family member or friend who is appointed a Deputy will not be paid for taking on the role although out of pocket expenses can be reimbursed.
This role is an appointment made by the Court of Protection and if a professional is appointed there will be a court order setting out how a professional deputy will be remunerated. This is usually in the form of the court assessing the Deputy's file and time spent and the costs, once agreed by the court, are paid from the protected party's funds.
