De Vries re TMPL Pty Ltd [2009] NSWSC 818
No positive case for the grant of dispensation was shown by reference to the interests of TMPL itself. The concern was for the reputation of the director and associated interests, which is not a relevant consideration. No evidence demonstrated that the statutory notification impairs TMPL’s ability to trade, its goodwill, or business rescue prospects. The application was therefore dismissed.
