Most of the material in Art 37 on constructive trusts of unauthorised fiduciary gains, however, is being moved to be dealt with under a new Art 91 dealing with Remedies for Breach of Fiduciary Duty within Division 5 to be headed ''The Consequences of a Breach of Trust or Breach of Fiduciary Duty'', the latter covering not just trustees but an extensive important range of other persons subject to fiduciary duties.* There has been little movement of the law in Division 4 on The Administration of Trusts except for refinement of the Hastings-Bass rule in Futter v HMRC [2013] UKSC 26. However, the Chap 14 Art 57 duties applicable to trustees exercising powers are being dealt with under Chap 13 dealing with The Trustee''s Duties, while in Chap 14 a new section deals with giving effect to dispositions which could have been effected by powers but were not so formally effected.* In Division 5 there have been many developments with Supreme Court cases dealing with breach of trust claims for misapplication of trust funds (AIB Group v Mark Redler & Co) and limitation of liability for constructive trustees (Williams v Central Bank of Nigeria) and Court of Appeal cases in England & elsewhere dealing with personal and proprietary remedies against recipients of misdirected funds and the bona fide purchaser defence (Independent Trustee Services Ltd v GP Noble Trustees Ltd, Relfo Ltd V Varsani, Rea v Russell, Grimaldi v Chameleon Mining (No 2), Brazil and Sao Paulo v Durant International Corp [2013] JCA) and gain-based remedies for dishonest assistance in breach of fiduciary duty (Novoship (UK) Ltd v Mikhaylyuk).* Division 6 covers some developments as to self-declared trusts (Akers v Samba Financial Group), choice of law (Gorgeous Beaty v Liu), choice of jurisdiction (Crociani v Crociani [2014] UKPC 40), the Re-cast Regulation No 15 of 2012 replacing Brussels 1 No 44 of 2001 and the Succession Regulation No 60 of 2012.* A new Division 7 on ''Trusts'' in Civil Law Countries'' to assist practitioners dealing with the creation or operation of such trusts.
