    The court declined to revisit its s30 costs allocation and confirmed that costs remain apportioned as previously ordered (receivership fund to bear receivers' costs; fund available to preferential creditors to bear liquidator's costs), and it awarded interim costs to the liquidator on the s37 application against the receivers payable from the receivership fund on a 2B scale with reasonable disbursements to be fixed by the Registrar, with leave to seek an increase after review of documents produced under s261.
