Exercise and control of liquidator’s powers

(1) Subject to this Act, the liquidator of a company which is being wound-up by the court shall, in the administration of the assets of the company and in the distribution thereof among its creditors, have regard to any directions that may be given by resolution of the creditors or contributories at any general meeting, or by the committee of inspection, and any directions given by the creditors or contributories at any general meeting shall, in case of conflict, be deemed to override any directions given by the committee of inspection. (2) The liquidator may summon general meetings of the creditors or contributories for the purpose of ascertaining their wishes, and it shall be his duty to summon meetings at such times as the creditors or contributories, by resolution, either at the meeting appointing the liquidator or otherwise, may direct, or whenever requested in writing to do so by one-tenth in value of the creditors or contributories, as the case may be. 122 (3) The liquidator may apply to the court in manner prescribed for directions in relation to any particular matter arising under the winding-up. (4) Subject to this Act, the liquidator shall use his own discretion in the management of the estate and its distribution among the creditors.
