Section 21.11(8)

Where money is recovered for the benefit of a child who is not a protected beneficiary— if the court considers it appropriate, it may order that the money be paid directly to the litigation friend to be placed in a bank, building society or similar account for the child’s use; if the money remains invested in court, it must be paid out to the child when the child reaches the age of 18; any investments held in court other than money must either be sold and the proceeds paid to the child, or transferred to the child, when the child reaches the age of 18.
