Section 6 in Part 2 states: "There shall be established, where appropriate, and maintained ... the register of wills". Who is to decide what is appropriate? The provision is a little ambiguous and perhaps could be clarified. Section 10(3) in Part 3 states: "One or more wills, including codicils, made by the same testator may be registered or re-registered under this section." Even if one or more wills are made, the last will is the important one. Will all the wills remain registered or just the last one?
