Public Trustee and Guardian (Fees) Determination 2016 (No 2)
Disallowable instrument DI2016–252
made under the 
Public Trustee and Guardian Act 1985, s 75 (Determination of fees and charges)

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Minister may, in writing, determine fees for the purposes of the Public Trustee and Guardian Act 1985.

The purpose of this determination is to amend fees for the Act.  This instrument revokes Disallowable Instrument DI2016-106 which set fees for the 2016-17 financial year.

This instrument generally increases fees for the hourly rate by 15 per cent, rounded to an appropriate value.  The increase to the hourly rate has been determined as appropriate to recover costs and to ensure the financial sustainability of the services the Public Trustee and Guardian delivers. 

The instrument contains further explanatory notes about the hourly rate for various items in the past instrument.
