Notice of Application for Approval of a Scheme Under Part III of the Charitable Trusts Act 1957 Notice is hereby given that the board of managers of The Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston Memorial Rest Homes Trust Board, being a body set up under the will of Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston, late of Auckland, married woman, deceased, and duly incorporated under the Charitable Trusts Act 1957, has filed in the office of the High Court at Auckland an application for approval of a scheme varying the terms of the trust deed under which The Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston Memorial Rest Homes Trust Board was set up. Under the will and trust deed (as amended) The Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston Memorial Rest Homes Trust Board was set up to provide geriatric hospital care and a rest home or homes for aged, infirm or impecunious women whose financial position is for the time being less favourable than it formerly was and irrespective of religious beliefs. Under this scheme The Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston Memorial Rest Homes Trust Board wishes (only where there is insufficient female demand for places in its geriatric hospital and/or rest home(s), to be authorised to admit male patients to its geriatric hospital and rest homes(s) on the same basis as currently exists for the admission of female patients. The board proposes that at all times prospective female patients should have preference over prospective male patients save that once male patients were admitted to the geriatric hospital or rest home(s) they would not be removed because of a change in the number of female applications for positions. Copies of the scheme and the report of the Attorney-General thereon may be inspected free of charge at the office of the Registrar of the High Court at Auckland or the offices of The Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston Memorial Rest Homes Trust Board, 17 Upland Road, Remuera, Auckland. The application has been set down for hearing in the High Court at Auckland on Tuesday, the 21st day of June 1994 at 10.30 a.m. Any person desiring to oppose the scheme is required to give written notice of his or her intention to do so to the Registrar of the High Court at Auckland and to The Marianne Caughey Smith-Preston Memorial Rest Homes Trust Board at Auckland and the Attorney-General (via the Crown Law Office, Saint Pauls Square, 45 Pipitea Street, Wellington (Attention: Miss Nerissa Barber)) not less than 7 clear days before the above-mentioned date.
