### sec.59 Notice to claimants against receivership property
The receiver must give notice to persons who may have a claim against receivership property.
The notice may be given—
by post; or
by newspaper advertisement; or
in another way the receiver reasonably thinks will bring the notice to the attention of persons who may have a claim to the receivership property.
The notice must state a time, at least 1 month after the notice is given, for particulars and grounds of a claim against the receivership property to be given to the receiver.
A claim made by a person (a claimant ) against receivership property must state—
the event alleged to give rise to the claim; and
when the event happened; and
if the claimant was not immediately aware that the claimant suffered financial loss because of the event, when the claimant became aware of the financial loss; and
all relevant particulars about the event and the financial loss; and
the claimant’s estimated financial loss.
The claim is taken to have been made on the day it is given to the receiver even though the claimant is unable to state all of the particulars mentioned in subsection (4) .
The receiver may require the claimant to verify the claim, or part of the claim.
