GUARDIANSHIP AND ADMINISTRATION ACT 2000 - SECT 27
Withdrawal with tribunal’s leave
27 Withdrawal with tribunal’s leave
(1) An appointment as a guardian or administrator for an adult for a matter
ends if, with the tribunal’s leave, the guardian or administrator withdraws
as guardian or administrator for the matter.
(2) If the tribunal gives leave
for a guardian or administrator to withdraw for a matter—
(a) the tribunal
may appoint someone else to replace the withdrawing person as guardian or
administrator for the matter; and
(b) for a withdrawing administrator notice
of whose appointment was given to the registrar of titles under section 21,
the registrar of the tribunal must take reasonable steps to advise the
registrar of titles of the withdrawal.
(3) If the registrar of titles
receives an advice of withdrawal, the registrar of titles must keep the
information contained in the advice in a way that ensures a search of the
relevant title reveals the withdrawal of the administrator.
(4) The
withdrawing administrator must pay the titles registry fee for giving the
advice, unless the tribunal orders otherwise.
