278. When instituting the tutorship, the court determines the time limits for periodic reassessment of the person of full age.
The time limits for reassessment may not exceed five years. A longer time limit may however be set for the medical reassessment, without exceeding 10 years, when it is clear that the situation of the person of full age will remain unchanged. Those time limits are determined taking into account the recommendations made in the medical and psychosocial assessment reports concerning the person of full age, the nature of his incapacity, the extent of his needs and the other circumstances of his condition.
The tutor is bound to see to it that the person of full age undergoes the assessments within the fixed time limits. The person of full age may, at any time, apply to be reassessed.

278. Unless the court fixes an earlier date, the protective supervision is reviewed every three years in the case of a tutorship or where an adviser has been appointed or every five years in the case of a curatorship.
The curator, tutor or adviser to the person of full age is bound to see to it that the person of full age is submitted to a medical and psychosocial assessment in due time. Where the person making the assessment becomes aware that the situation of the person of full age has so changed as to justify the termination or modification of protective supervision, he makes a report to the person of full age and to the person having applied for the assessment and files a copy of the report in the office of the court.
