LABOUR TRIBUNAL (SUITORS' FUNDS) RULES - RULE 7

Payment out on death of person entitled

Where the registrar is satisfied that any person entitled under rule 6 to
payment out of funds has died, the registrar may pay out such funds (or any
portion thereof remaining unpaid at the date of the death of the deceased) as
follows-

   (a)  the registrar may pay out such funds to the legal personal
        representatives of the deceased or, if it appears that any such
        personal representative has died, to the survivor or survivors of
        them;

   (b)  where it appears to the registrar that the deceased died intestate
        having assets not exceeding the value of $5000 including the amount of
        such funds, and if administration has not been granted in respect of
        his estate, the registrar may pay out such funds to the person who
        (being the spouse, child, father, mother, brother or sister of the
        deceased) would have the prior right to a grant of administration of
        the estate, upon a declaration by such person in Form 2 in the
        Schedule hereto.
