Apprenticeship Ordinance

Where the employer of a registered apprentice dies, the contract of
                apprenticeship to which the employer was a party shall not be determined by his
                death if the trade or occupation in which the apprentice was employed is carried on
                by the personal representative of the deceased employer. Such personal
                representative shall be the new employer and the contract shall be binding on him as
                if he were a party to the contract in place of the deceased employer.

Where under subsection (1) a contract of apprenticeship binds a personal
                representative, he shall, within 30 days after the death of the employer, notify the
                Director in writing of such death and the date thereof.
