A CHARA,

With reference to your letter of the iyth inst.,

on

the subject of deeds and other documents,

June,

1948.

DEAR SIR,

My Commissioners at their meeting held on the

15th instant reviewed the question of publication

of charitable devises and bequests and they directed

me to communicate to you the following Order:—

" That in any case in which the total amount

of the charitable devises and bequests exceeds

£500, but does not exceed

£1,000,

and in which

special circumstances are shown to exist, e.g.,

where

the

legacies are given

to organised

charitable bodies, the Board will be prepared

to consider applications for exemption, either

wholly or partially, from the obligation to

publish the Statutory Notice."

The Commissioners ruling as set out in a letter

addressed to you on the 2nd April, 1942, applicable

to cases where the value of the charitable devises

and bequests does not exceed £500, remains un

altered.

Yours faithfully,

J. S. MARTIN,

Secretary.

NOTE.—The following is the ruling of the Commissioners

of the znd April, 1942, referred to in the above letter :—

" In every case in which the total amount of the

charitable devises and bequests contained in a Will

does not exceed £500, the Commissioners will, in the

future, having regard to the high costs of publication,

be prepared to give favourable consideration to any

application that may be made on behalf of the executor

or administrator, as the case may be, to be exempted,

cither wholly or partially, from the obligation to publish

the Statutory Notice."
