revocability
Ability to withdraw
Revocability is the quality of being able to be revoked or taken back.
Legal documents, permissions, and decisions may have revocability built in: The revocability of the trust allows the grantor to make changes.
The opposite is irrevocability—something permanent that cannot be undone.
