302: Licensing trust is body corporate

You could also call this:

"A licensing trust is like a single team that keeps going forever and has its own official stamp."

When you look at a licensing trust, you see it as a single entity that exists forever. This means it keeps going even if the people involved change. You know it is official because it has its own seal.

A licensing trust must have a seal, which is like an official stamp. You can find more information about this by looking at s 186. This helps you understand what a licensing trust is and how it works.
