How do I find the 'prescribed official name' of a bankruptcy trustee?

In Plain English

To find the official name a bankruptcy trustee must use, check subsection 161(2) of the Bankruptcy Act. It states that the prescribed official name is "The Trustee (or Trustees) of the Property of (name of bankrupt), a Bankrupt".

Detailed Explanation

The Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Family Law) Rules 2021 rule 3.26(1) states that if a bankruptcy trustee is added as a party to a relevant proceeding, the trustee must be added using their prescribed official name.

Rule 3.26(2)(a) refers to subsection 161(2) of the Bankruptcy Act 1966 for the definition of the prescribed official name of a bankruptcy trustee. That subsection specifies that the official name is "The Trustee (or Trustees) of the Property of (name of bankrupt), a Bankrupt".
