Adjournment and stay of the proceeding were refused because the receivers withdrew their assertion that GST was likely payable and the issues of mistake and negligence could be determined without IRD resolution; however enforcement of the consent orders was stayed because enforcement now would likely cause irreversible prejudice to the Official Assignee and amount to a substantial miscarriage of justice, and maintaining the status quo best serves the interests of justice.
