Rule 4.135 Other matters affecting remuneration

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Where the liquidator sells assets on behalf of a secured creditor, he is entitled to take for himself, out of the proceeds of sale, a sum by way of remuneration equivalent to that which is chargeable in corresponding circumstances by the official receiver under general regulations.

(2)

Where there are joint liquidators, it is for them to agree between themselves as to how the remuneration payable should be apportioned. Any dispute arising between them may be referred—

(a)

to the court, for settlement by order, or

(b)

to the liquidation committee or a meeting of creditors, for settlement by resolution.

(3)

If the liquidator is a solicitor and employs his own firm, or any partner in it, to act on behalf of the company, profit costs shall not be paid unless this is authorised by the liquidation committee, the creditors or the court.
