Join Andrew Miller and Fraser Allister from Bedell Cristin for an insightful look at the Privy Council's important decision in the long-running Dawson-Damer litigation.
We'll look at the impact of the decision on trustee decision making and analyse a trustee's duty of "adequate deliberation" (and how the trustee in Dawson-Damer fell afoul of such duty).
We'll also give practical insights on best practices when designing and implementing decision making procedures and record keeping. It promises to be a must-attend for STEP members looking for clarity and best practice guidance.
