Non-contentious Probate Rules 1967

Grants of administration durante minore aetate may be made to guardians of infants for their use and benefit, subject to such limitations or conditions as the Registrar may order.

Infants above the age of 14 years may elect a guardian; and in other cases the Registrar may, on application made to him on motion, appoint as guardian a fit and proper person who consents to act.

Where a guardian applies for administration, he shall produce evidence of his election or assignment.

In a family where there are infants both above and under the age of 14 years, an elected guardian may act for all the infants without special assignment.
