Rule 1.57 Right to list of creditorsC1
This rule applies to—
a moratorium under Part A1 of the Act;
administration;
creditors' voluntary winding up;
winding up by the court; and
bankruptcy.
A creditor has the right to require the office-holder to provide a list of the names and addresses of the creditors and the amounts of their respective debts unless—
a statement of affairs has been filed with the court or delivered to the registrar of companies; or
the information is available for inspection on the bankruptcy file.
The office-holder on being required to provide such a list—
must deliver it to the person requiring the list as soon as reasonably practicable; and
may charge the standard fee for copies for a hard copy.
The office-holder may omit the name and address of a creditor if the office-holder thinks its disclosure would be prejudicial to the conduct of the proceedings or might reasonably be expected to lead to violence against any person.
In such a case the list must include—
the amount of that creditor's debt; and
a statement that the name and address of the creditor has been omitted for that debt.
