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

(1)

Where the trustee is appointed by a creditors' meeting, he shall, forthwith after receiving his certificate of appointment, give notice of his appointment in such newspaper as he thinks most appropriate for ensuring that it comes to the notice of the bankrupt's creditors.

(2)

The expense of giving the notice shall be borne in the first instance by the trustee; but he is entitled to be reimbursed by the estate, as an expense of the bankruptcy.

(3)

Paragraph (2) applies also in the case of the notice or advertisement under Article 269(4) (appointment of trustee by Department), and of the notice or advertisement under Article 270(6) (appointment by the court).
