Where that land is vested in a trust or an incorporation,
such an order will only be made with the consent of the trust
or management committee, and may be made for a specified
period.
Although clause 20.3 allows Trustees to delegate, they must still exercise supervision over the
person or committee that powers have been delegated to. A poor decision to delegate or a
failure to supervise can lead to the Trustees being liable for losses or damages caused by the
person or committee that powers have been delegated to.
