Are there any circumstances under which an eligible income beneficiary of a discretionary trust might, in the absence of a vested remainder interest, be able to compel the trust to make a distribution or payment?

OGE will take into consideration all relevant expert input submitted by the public within 60 days of the date of this notice.
