This Practice Note written by Pete Murrin of Turcan Connell considers the manner and form in which a person may be appointed to the office of trustee, including appointment by the settlor and assumption by the continuing trustees. This Practice Note also addresses the ways in which a person may cease to be a trustee, including removal and resignation. The powers of the court under T(S)A 1921, as well as under the nobile officium are also considered.
