This Order amends the Public Trustee (Fees) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/855), which was amended by the Public Trustee (Fees) (Amendment) Order 2002 (S.I. 2002/2232) and further amended by the Public Trustee (Fees) (Amendment) Order 2003 (S.I. 2003/690) and the Public Trustee (Fees) (Amendment) Order 2004 (S.I.2004/799) and comes into force on 1 April 2005, in relation to fees payable on or after that date.
The table below sets out where executorship fees and annual administration fees have been increased. In addition, for the purposes of calculating the administration fee, this Order provides that the estate or trust will be valued as at 30 September 2004 (provided that the Public Trustee was acting on that date), instead of 30 September 2002.
