Tasmania regulation
This instrument amends the Probate Rules 1936 and takes effect when the Intestacy Act 2010 commences. It mechanically updates the court’s procedural rules for probate by incorporating specified amendments into the authorised version of the Principal Rules. It affects courts, probate practitioners, executors and administrators by changing which procedural text applies when dealing with estates, and matters because it aligns probate procedure with the new intestacy law and therefore alters compliance obligations for anyone handling an estate.
