Retired trustee's liability for post-retirement breach of trust

I have come across some STEP notes that suggest that "a retired trustee may be responsible for a breach of trust that occurs after he has retired, if he retired anticipating the breach and specifically to try to avoid involvement in the breach’.

Unfortunately, I have been unable to find any authority for this. Have members of this forum come across any case references or commentaries that may point me in the right direction?
