92 Proceedings for protection or recovery of land settled or claimed as settled
The Court may, if it thinks fit, approve of any action, defence, petition to Parliament, Parliamentary opposition, or other proceeding taken or proposed to be taken for the protection of settled land, or of any action or proceeding taken or proposed to be taken for the recovery of the land being or alleged to be subject to a settlement, and may direct that any costs, charges or expenses incurred or to be incurred in relation thereto, or any part thereof, be paid out of property subject to the settlement.
If a question arises or a doubt is entertained—
respecting the exercise or intended exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Act, or any corresponding previous enactment, or the settlement, or any matter relating thereto; or
otherwise in relation to property subject to a settlement—
the tenant for life, or statutory owner or the trustees of the settlement, or any other person interested under the settlement, may apply to the Court for its decision or directions thereon, or for the sanction of the Court to any conditional contract, and the Court may make such order or give such directions respecting the matter as the Court thinks fit.
