NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE
- Revoking Clause 5 of the trust deed of the 18th day of October 1990 as amended by the deed of the 7th day of August 1995 and inserting in its place:
“5 The Board may by supplementel Deed executed pursuant to a resolution passed by a three quarters majority alter or add to the terms and provisions of this deed except that no such alteration or addition is to—
5.1 vary, alter or enlarge the charitable purposes specified in the Trust Deed as amended by this Order, or
5.2 detract from the exclusively charitable nature of the Trust or result in the distribution of its assets on winding up or dissolution for any purpose that is not exclusively charitable.”
Upon the grounds that granting the order will facilitate the administration of the trust which is at present subject to limitations imposed by the trust deed dated the 18th day of October 1990.
Upon the further grounds that those limitations include the purposes of the trust which, as expressed in the trust deed, are to benefit those persons with intellectual or physical disabilities when the board is increasingly being called upon and is in a good position to assist persons with other disabilities and special needs not strictly to be so described.
Upon the further grounds that the trustees have the power to amend the trust deed but not the appropriate clauses which are effectively entrenched.
Finally upon the further grounds that there have been continuing difficulties with the interpretation of the trust deed because of its formless and confusing provisions which will be redrafted once the matter of what provisions are to be made unalterable is decided by the Court.
