On the abolition of a cemetery trust by order under section 8, subject to that
order-

   (a)  the cemetery trust is abolished and its members go out of office; and



   (b)  in the case of an order under section 8(1)(d), the cemetery trust,
        municipal council or other person or body to which the abolished
        cemetery trust's assets and liabilities are transferred becomes the
        successor in law to the abolished cemetery trust; and

   (c)  in the case of an order under section 8(1)(d), unless a contrary
        intention appears, any reference to the abolished cemetery trust in
        any Act, subordinate instrument, certificate of title, agreement or
        other document is to be construed as a reference to the cemetery
        trust, municipal council or other person or body to which the
        abolished cemetery trust's assets and liabilities were transferred.
