it considers it beneficial to do so, give permission to an executor,
administrator or trustee of a deceased person, or to the Public Trustee—
(a) to
postpone, for such period as the Court thinks expedient, the realisation of
the estate or trust property;
(b) to

the estate of the testator or intestate, or such portion of it as the Court
directs.
