Trustee Ordinance

If and whenever any person shall be entitled to apply for probate of the will of any testator without leave being reserved to any other person to apply for probate, it shall be lawful for such person, whether absent from Hong Kong or not, and notwithstanding the provisions of any other enactment, instead of himself applying for such probate, to authorize a trust company to apply to the court for a grant of administration with the will annexed of the estate of such testator, and such grant may be made to the trust company upon its own application, when so authorized, but the provisions of this section shall not apply to any case in which a will provides that a company shall not act as executor or in the trusts thereof.
