Guardianship and Administration Act 2000

An appointment as a guardian or administrator for an adult for a matter ends if, with the tribunal’s leave, the guardian or administrator withdraws as guardian or administrator for the matter.

If the tribunal gives leave for a guardian or administrator to withdraw for a matter—

the tribunal may appoint someone else to replace the withdrawing person as guardian or administrator for the matter; and

for a withdrawing administrator notice of whose appointment was given to the registrar of titles under section 21, the registrar of the tribunal must take reasonable steps to advise the registrar of titles of the withdrawal.

If the registrar of titles receives an advice of withdrawal, the registrar of titles must keep the information contained in the advice in a way that ensures a search of the relevant title reveals the withdrawal of the administrator.

The withdrawing administrator must pay the titles registry fee for giving the advice, unless the tribunal orders otherwise.
