Payment to heirs of deceased creditor permitted without succession certificate if liquidator confirms entitlement and payee provides indemnity.

Where a claim for a dividend to a deceased creditor or a return of capital to a deceased contributory falls within a small-value threshold, the Official Liquidator, having satisfied himself of the claimant's right and title, may apply to the Court to sanction payment without production of a succession certificate; if the Court sanctions payment, the Official Liquidator shall make payment upon obtaining a personal indemnity from the payee.
