Under the terms of his will a company director’s estate is to be held on trust to pay the income to his daughter for her life and after her death to be divided between all the present and former employees of his company.
The daughter consults a solicitor to ask whether the gift is valid. The daughter objects to the terms of her father’s will and is also concerned that it is not workable. Although the daughter has a complete list of past and present employees of the company she is not sure that all of them can be traced.
Which of the following statements provides the best advice regarding the gift?
