STATUTORY AND MANAGEMENT
COMMITTEES |
Unlike a company or a society,
the trust does not have a General Body, from which the Governing Body is elected. The trustees are the ultimate authorities
of a trust. Therefore, all the Trustees form the Governing Body of the Trust and the issue of electing a Governing Body is
not relevant. However, Trustees can elect office bearers among themselves at periodic intervals. It is important that the
Trust Deed is drafted accordingly. |
