s 73Small sums payable by public departments to deceased persons

(1)

On the death of any person to whom any sum of money not exceeding $2,500 is payable by a public depart-ment within Brunei in respect of civil pay or allowances or annuities granted either under the authority of Her Britan-nic Majesty's Government or of the Government of Brunei, it shall be lawful for the Permanent Secretary, on being satisfied of the expediency of dispensing with probate or administration, to authorise the payment of such sum to such person or persons as the Permanent Secretary may consider entitled thereto, without requiring the production of probate or administration.

(2)

Payment of all such sums of money shall be made under such regulations as the Permanent Secretary may, with the approval of the Minister, make for that purpose.
