Rule 3: Proportionality
- 3.1
-
Nothing in these rules shall require the SRA to take any action which it considers unreasonable or disproportionate in the context of any statutory trust account.
- 3.2
-
The SRA may apply a level to beneficial entitlements within a statutory trust account below which it will not attempt to identify and/or locate potential beneficiaries where in the opinion of the SRA it would be unreasonable or disproportionate to do so. The level applies to the principal sum identified as relating to a particular beneficiary, after the application of any pro-rata adjustment which may be made under rule 7.2 and ignoring the addition of any interest as set out in rule 8.1.
