In case of a voluntary winding up, the company shall, from the commencement of the winding up, cease to carry on its business, except so far as may be required for the beneficial winding up: s 231. A winding up in the case of which a certificate of solvency has been issued and delivered is referred to as a members’ voluntary winding up, and a winding up in the case of which a certificate of solvency has not been issued and delivered is referred to as a creditors’ voluntary winding up: s 233(4). The costs, charges and expenses properly incurred in the voluntary winding up, including the remuneration of the liquidator, are payable out of the assets of the company in priority to all other claims: s 256. The court may on the application of the liquidator or any creditor order that the winding up of a company ordered to be wound up by the court shall, from the date of the order made on such application, be conducted as if the winding up were a creditors’ voluntary winding up: s 209A(1).
