Australian Capital Territory Current Acts

ADMINISTRATION AND PROBATE ACT 1929 - SECT 70

The Supreme Court may allow out of the assets of a deceased person to the person's executor, administrator or trustee the commission or percentage for his or her services that is just.

Note     The provisions of this part were relocated from the Imperial Acts (Substituted Provisions) Act 1986 , sch 2 (for the effect of a relocation, see Legislation Act 2001

, s 96). The 1986 Act substituted provisions for certain UK Acts that applied (or may have applied) in the ACT and repealed those Acts. The 1986 Act, s 4 (1) provided, in effect, that the rules of law about the interpretation of consolidating Acts apply to the interpretation of the provisions of a law set out in schedule 2. These rules of law continue to apply to this part (see Legislation Act 2001

, s 96 (3)).
