Excluded information

Information we hold relating to our functions exercised as executor, administrator or trustee is 'excluded information' for which there is a conclusive presumption of overriding public interest against disclosure (as provided in section 43 and schedule 2 of GIPAA).

Under Schedule 1 of GIPAA, it is presumed that there is an overriding public interest against disclosure of excluded information (unless the agency consents to disclosure).

If you are seeking access to information we hold in our capacity as executor, administrator or trustee, we will consider your request by applying trustee disclosure principles and law.
