21 Administration to guardian of child sole executor
(1) If a child is sole executor, administration with the will annexed may
be granted to—
(a) the guardian of the child; or
(b) any other person the Supreme Court considers appropriate;
until the child is 18 years old, with full or limited powers to act in the
premises until probate has been granted to the executor or
administration has been granted to some other person.
(2) The person to whom that administration is granted has the same
powers as an administrator under an administration granted during
the minority of the child.
