Corporations Act 2001
Note: This Part does not apply to a CCIV or a sub-fund of a CCIV: see Division 4 of Part 8B.6 .
The object of this Part, and Schedule 2 to the extent that it relates to this Part, is to provide for the business, property and affairs of an insolvent company to be administered in a way that:
(a) maximises the chances of the company, or as much as possible of its business, continuing in existence; or
(b) if it is not possible for the company or its business to continue in existence - results in a better return for the company's creditors and members than would result from an immediate winding up of the company.
Note: Schedule 2 contains additional rules about companies under external administration.
[ CCH Note: Regulation 10.25.02(3)(g) (which was effective 1 March 2017) provides that the amendments made by No 11 of 2016, s 3, Sch 2[100] and [101] apply in relation to external administrations on and after 1 September 2017.]
