| 单词 | First meeting of creditors |
| 释义 | 債權人的首次會議 The first meeting of a debtor’s creditors after the making of a receiving order. After the making of a receiving order against a debtor a general meeting of his creditors shall be held for the purpose of considering whether a proposal for a composition or scheme of arrangement shall be accepted, or whether it is expedient that the debtor shall be adjudged bankrupt, and generally as to the mode of dealing with the debtor’s property: Bankruptcy Ordinance (Cap 6) s 17 (prior to its amendment). After 1 April 1998, however, where a bankruptcy order has been made and no order for the summary administration of the bankrupt’s estate has been made, it is the duty of the Official Receiver, as soon as practicable in the period of 12 weeks beginning with the day on which the order was made, to decide whether to summon a general meeting of the bankrupt’s creditors for the purpose of appointing a trustee: s 17A(1). Where the Official Receiver has not yet summoned, or has decided not to summon, a general meeting of the bankrupt's creditors for the purpose of appointing the trustee, any creditor of the bankrupt may request the Official Receiver to summon such a meeting for that purpose: s 17B(1). See also Bankrupt; Creditors’ meeting; Trustee in bankruptcy. 債務人的債權人在接管令作出後所舉行的首次會議。在作出針對債務人的接管令後，其債權人須舉行全體大會，就是否接納有關債務重整協議或債務償還安排的建議、或債務人是否適合被判定破產、及一般地就債務人的財產的處置方式作出決定：《破產條例》（第6章）第17條（修訂前）。但自1998年4月1日後，凡已作出破產令，但沒有作出對破產人的產業作簡易方式管理的命令，則破產管理署署長在職責上須於自作出破產令之日起計的12個星期的期間內，在切實可行範圍內盡快決定是否為委任一名受託人一事而召集該破產人的債權人的大會：第17A(1)條。如破產管理署署長尚未為委任受託人的目的召集破產人的債權人的大會，或已決定不召集該大會，則該破產人的任何債權人可請求破產管理署署長為該目的而召集該大會：第17B(1)條。另見 Bankrupt; Creditors’ meeting; Trustee in bankruptcy。 |
