136.—(1) Where the administrator has made a statement of pre-administration costs under rule 59(2)(m), the creditors’ committee may determine whether and to what extent the unpaid pre-administration costs set out in the statement are approved for payment.
(2) But if—
(a)there is no creditors’ committee; or
(b)there is but it does not make the necessary determination; or
(c)it does do so but the administrator or other insolvency practitioner who has charged fees or incurred expenses as pre-administration costs considers the amount determined to be insufficient,
paragraph (3) applies.
(3) When this paragraph applies, determination of whether and to what extent the unpaid pre-administration costs are approved for payment shall be by resolution of—
(a)where the pre-administration costs were incurred in pursuance of Objective A, or Objectives 2 and 3, a meeting of creditors;
(b)where the pre-administration costs were incurred wholly in pursuance of Objective 1, a meeting of clients; or
(c)where the pre-administration costs were incurred in pursuance of Objective 1, Objective A and Objective 2 and 3, a meeting of creditors and clients.
(4) The administrator must call a meeting of the creditors’ committee or a meeting under paragraph (3) if so requested for the purposes of paragraphs (1) to (3) by another insolvency practitioner who has charged fees or incurred expenses as pre-administration costs; and the administrator must give notice of the meeting within 28 days of receipt of the request.
(5) If—
(a)there is no determination under paragraph (1) or (3); or
(b)there is such a determination but the administrator or other insolvency practitioner who has charged fees or incurred expenses as pre-administration costs considers the amount determined to be insufficient,
the administrator (where the fees were charged or expenses incurred by the administrator) or other insolvency practitioner (where the fees were charged or expenses incurred by that practitioner) may apply to the court for a determination of whether and to what extent the unpaid pre-administration costs are approved for payment.
(6) Paragraphs (2) to (4) of rule 200 apply to an application under paragraph (5) of this rule as they do to an application under paragraph (1) of that rule (references to the administrator being read as references to the insolvency practitioner who has charged fees or incurred expenses as pre-administration costs).
(7) Where the administrator fails to call a meeting of the creditors’ committee or a meeting under paragraph (3) in accordance with paragraph (4), the other insolvency practitioner may apply to the court for an order requiring the administrator to do so.
