The court held that s.30 CIPAA is a specific statutory regime that takes precedence over the general moratorium and preference provisions of the Companies Act 2016; because monies were due or payable by the principal to the contractor at the time the s.30 request was received, the principal was statutorily obliged to make direct payment under s.30(3) CIPAA to the Plaintiff and the judicial management moratorium did not invalidate that obligation.
