If the Public Trustee has obtained an order to administer the estate in this State of a person who at the time of death was domiciled in another State or a Territory of the Commonwealth, or in New Zealand, the Public
Trustee may pay over to the executor of the will or administrator of the estate in the place of domicile the balance of the estate after payment of debts in this State and charges provided for under this or any other Act, without seeing to the application of any money so paid and without incurring any liability in regard to the payment.
