Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

If the Department decides to remove the trustee, it shall before doing so notify the trustee and the official receiver of its decision and the grounds of it, and specify a period within which the trustee may make representations against implementation of the decision.

(2)

If the Department directs the removal of the trustee, it shall forthwith—

(a)

file notice of its decision in court, and

(b)

send notice to the trustee and the official receiver.

(3)

If the trustee is removed by direction of the Department, the court may make any such order in his case as it would have power to make if he had been removed by itself.
