WILLS ACT - SECT 34

Beneficiaries must survive testator by 30 days

34. Beneficiaries must survive testator by 30 days

(1) If a testator makes a disposition to a person who dies within 30 days after the death of the testator, the testator's will is to take effect as if the person had died immediately before the testator.

(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if a contrary intention appears in the will.

(3) For the avoidance of doubt, a general requirement or condition that a beneficiary survive the testator does not indicate a contrary intention for the purposes of this section.
