Where any compensation is payable under the principal Act in respect of the death of a worker and the Court determines that there were two or more dependants, the Court may order—
(a)
That the compensation or so much thereof as it may specify shall be allotted to any dependant exclusively or shall be allotted in such proportions as the Court determines among the dependants or among such two or more of them to the exclusion of the other or others of them as the Court specifies:
(b)
That the compensation or so much thereof as it may specify shall be held on trust as a class fund for the benefit of the dependants or of such two or more of them to the exclusion of the other or others of them as the Court specifies.
(3)
Where any amount is allotted to a dependant under subsection one or subsection two of this section, that amount shall be paid to him unless he is an infant or of unsound mind or except in so far as the Court orders that the whole or any part of that amount shall be held on trust under subsection four of this section.
(4)
Where any amount is allotted to any dependant who is an infant or of unsound mind or the Court orders that the whole or any part of the amount allotted to a dependant is to be held on trust for that dependant under this subsection, then, except in so far as the Court directs any immediate payment therefrom, and subject to any directions or conditions given or imposed by the Court,—
(a)
The amount shall be invested and held by the trustee upon trust—
(i)
To make such payments (if any) to the dependant out of the income and capital of the amount as the Court may specify; and
(ii)
To apply the income and capital of the amount or so much thereof as the trustee from time to time thinks fit for or towards the maintenance or education (including past maintenance or education provided after the death of the worker) or the advancement or benefit of the dependant:
(b)
The dependant shall have no power, either by himself or in conjunction with any other person or persons, to terminate the trusts upon which the amount is held or to modify or extinguish those trusts:
(c)
The interest of the dependant in the income and capital of the amount shall not, while it remains in the hands of the trustee, be alienated, or pass by bankruptcy, or be liable to be seized, sold, attached, or taken in execution by process of law.
(5)
Upon any dependant ceasing to be an infant or of unsound mind while any amount is held on trust for his benefit under subsection four of this section, the balance of that amount and of the income therefrom remaining in the hands of the trustee shall be paid to the dependant except in so far as the Court may have ordered before the payment is made that the whole or any part of that amount shall continue to be held on trust under that subsection:
Provided that where the trustee has notice that an application has been made to the Court for such an order he shall not make any payment under this subsection until the application has been disposed of.
(6)
The Court may order that, if any dependant dies while any amount allotted to him is held on trust under subsection four of this section (whether or not he is an infant or of unsound mind), any balance of the amount and of the income therefrom remaining in the hands of the trustee at his death, or so much thereof as the Court may specify, shall form part of the dependants estate, or shall be added to the amount allotted to any other dependant or to the amounts allotted to all or any of the other dependants in such proportions as the Court may specify or to any class fund set aside out of the compensation, and shall be subject to the trusts of the amount or amounts or fund to which it is added:
Provided that if and so far as that balance is not wholly disposed of under any order of the Court made during the lifetime of the dependant for whose benefit it has been held, or made on an application to the Court made not later than six months after that dependants death, it shall form part of his estate.
(7)
Where any amount is ordered to be held on trust as a class fund for any dependants under subsection two of this section, that amount shall be invested and the trustee may at his discretion, but subject to such directions and conditions as the Court may give or impose, apply the income and capital of that amount or so much thereof as the trustee from time to time thinks fit for or towards the maintenance or education (including past maintenance or education provided after the death of the worker) or the advancement or benefit of those dependants or of any one or more of them to the exclusion of the other or others of them in such shares and proportions and generally in such manner as the trustee from time to time thinks fit; and may so apply the income and capital of that amount notwithstanding that only one of those dependants remains alive.
(8)
The Court may from time to time, at its discretion, authorize moneys to be advanced to any dependant (whether by way of loan or otherwise) as it thinks fit, and upon or subject to such conditions as it thinks fit, out of the compensation or out of any amounts allotted to other dependants or out of any amount held on trust as a class fund, for any purpose that the Court thinks proper in the interests of the dependants or any of them. Without limiting the generality of this subsection, it is hereby declared that any such advance may be made for the purpose of purchasing or otherwise acquiring a residential property for the use of the dependant either alone or in conjunction with any other dependants, or for the purpose of repaying any moneys secured by way of mortgage or otherwise on any residential property owned by the dependant and so used, or for the purpose of furnishing any such residential property. Where moneys are advanced by way of loan, the Court may give such directions as it thinks fit in respect of the security to be taken, and may either prescribe the conditions upon or subject to which the moneys are to be advanced or authorize the trustee to prescribe the conditions at his discretion. The conditions may include power to the trustee to remit interest and principal moneys or any part thereof to the extent of the amount or value of any maintenance, education, advancement, or benefit which the dependant to whom the moneys are advanced may provide for any other dependants.
(9)
The Court may exercise any power conferred on the Supreme Court under section eighty-one of the Statutes Amendment Act 1936 (which relates to dealings with trust property) either on the creation of any trust under any of the provisions of this section or from time to time during the continuance of any such trust.
(10)
The Court may at any time vary any order made by it either before or after the passing of this Act so far as the order relates to any compensation in respect of the death of a worker which is for the time being in the hands of a trustee under the principal Act.
(11)
In making or varying an order under this section the Court shall have regard to all relevant considerations; and the Court may, whenever it considers that it is just and proper to do so, take into consideration all or any of the following matters:—
(a)
Any gain to any dependant that is consequent on the death of the worker; and
(b)
Circumstances which have arisen after the date of the death of the worker; and

The expression “trustee”
means the Public Trustee except where the Court appoints any other trustee, in which case it means the trustee so appointed:
(b)

(14)
The provisions of this section shall extend so as to apply to compensation that has become payable in respect of the death of a worker before the passing of this Act except in so far as the compensation has been disposed of in accordance with the provisions repealed by this section.
(15)
Where the Court has made any order before the passing of this Act and the order was invalid at the time when it was made but would have been valid if this section had then been in force, the order shall be deemed to have been validly made and the provisions of this section shall be deemed to have applied to the order as from the time when it was made.
Repeals.
(16)
The principal Act is hereby amended as follows:—
(a)
By repealing sections thirty-one, thirty-three, and thirty-five, and subsection one of section thirty-six:

Provided that where the employer or other person by whom the compensation is payable has notice that an application has been made to the Court for such an order he shall not make any payment under this subsection until the application has been disposed of.
