If the chairperson decides that the notice is not valid, the reasons for that determination must
be recorded on the proxy form and a copy kept for the trust records.
On request, the chairperson may allow any person entitled to vote to inspect any proxy form.
The main priorities for the Court now are first, to remedy errors in the lists, using s 86 of TTWMA, and second, to update the list of successors based on previous and new evidence, the latter of which requires hearings to be held so evidence can be heard. An application form based on the existing form for successions has been modified for the purposes of SILNA determinations, and individual applications are linked to a central file to ensure consistency.
Disclosure of any matter which might give rise to objection should be undertaken even if
the judge has formed the view that there is no basis for recusal.
