75‑100 Decisions in relation to entitlement to vote at creditors’ meeting

(1) The trustee may determine any question that arises as to the entitlement of a person to vote. (2) In deciding whether a creditor is entitled to vote at a meeting of creditors, a trustee must: (a) have regard to the merits of the creditor’s claim; and (b) act impartially and independently, without regard to the regulated debtor’s wishes. (3) If the trustee needs a period in which to determine the entitlement of a creditor to vote, the meeting is to be adjourned to such time, date and place as the meeting resolves for the purpose of enabling the trustee to determine the question. (4) The date must not be later than 10 business days after the date of the original meeting.
