183: No notices of trusts may be entered in register

You could also call this:

"The register doesn't include information about trusts"

You cannot put any information about trusts in the register for trademarks. The Commissioner, who looks after the register, does not have to pay attention to any trust information even if someone tries to tell them about it. This rule helps keep the register simple and focused only on trademark information.
