  • Limitation Act 1981 (NT) s 44, on the s 44(3)(b) gateways.
  • Where another provision fixes a longer period for the same action, the LATER governs (s 33(b)) - in particular s 32 for fraudulent breach of trust. For a beneficiary's future estate or interest, the cause of action accrues on the later of the date the interest falls into possession and the date it would otherwise accrue (s 34).
