42. And....1 it shall not be lawful for any commissary court in Scotland to grant confirmation of any testament, testamentary or dative, or eik thereto, of or for any estate or effects whatever of any person dying after the tenth of October one thousand eight hundred and eight, unless the same shall be mentioned and included in some such inventory exhibited and recorded as aforesaid [nor unless that inventory shows by means of such receipt or certification as may be prescribed by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue either that the [inheritance tax 2 ] payable on the delivery of the inventory has been paid or that no [inheritance tax 2 ] is so payable 3 ]; and it shall not be competent to any executor or executors or other person or persons to recovery any debt or other effects in Scotland of or belonging to any person dying after the said tenth day of October, unless the same shall have been previously included in some such inventory exhibited and recorded as aforesaid; except the same respectively were vested in the deceased as a trustee for any other person or persons, and not beneficially; but these provisions are not in other respects to prejudice the law of Scotland regarding total or partial confirmations, or the rules of succession there established. [Provided that the arrangements may be made between the Court of Session and the Commissioners providing for the purposes of this section in such cases as may be specified that the said inventory shall be effective without such receipt or certification as aforesaid, or that some other document may be substituted for the inventory. 3 ] |
