The Court has jurisdiction under s 284, s 284(1)(b) and s 321(1)(f) to reverse the filing of a liquidator's final report, prevent striking off and remove private liquidators even after completion where there is good reason; while private liquidators are not required to fund investigations themselves, it is unreasonable for them to refuse to resign or permit the Official Assignee to assume the role where acknowledged grounds for investigation exist but no creditor will fund them, and the Court will exercise its discretion to appoint the Official Assignee to enable investigation.
