Essentially, the rights of creditors are suspended for a period to enable the administrator to ascertain if the company can be reorganised so that its business(es) may be sold as a going concern, thereby protecting the interests of employees and, in the longer run, the creditors themselves. This is distinct from the func- tion of an administrative receiver appointed under a debenture. |
