Abstract

Construes the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 s.6(5) under which trustees of trusts of land are required to have regard to the rights of the beneficiaries when exercising the powers conferred on them under s.6, proposing a construction of the subsection which requires it to be read as a counterpart to the provisions of s.15. Considers the meaning to be attributed to the word "rights" in s.6(5). Explains the reasons for the proposed construction, applies it to an example scenario and identifies three advantages in adopting it.
