117 .         Remuneration

        (1)         The State Administrative Tribunal may fix remuneration or a rate of remuneration and order that the same be paid to an administrator out of the estate of the represented person if the Tribunal considers that, because of the size or complexity of the estate or both, remuneration should be paid to the administrator.

        (2)         A guardian, and except as provided in subsection (1) an administrator, shall not receive remuneration for services rendered to the represented person.

        (3)         Nothing in this section —

            (a)         prevents the Public Trustee from receiving remuneration under the Public Trustee Act 1941 ; or

            (b)         limits the operation of section 16 of this Act or section 39, 87 or 88 of the State Administrative Tribunal Act 2004 .

        (4)         Subject to subsection (3)(a), a corporate trustee shall only be entitled to commission in respect of the capital of the estate of a represented person to the extent that the State Administrative Tribunal expressly allows.
