EXTEHPORE REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

The applicants are the receivers and managers of Casmif Pty. Ltd. Their appointment has not been challenged in this court. Accordingly, certain obligations arise under the provisions of the Cor~orations Law, particularly in relation to the provision of information and the production of

documents and of the provision of reports under sections 429

and 430 of the Cor~orations Law.
The applicants were appointed on 12 May 1992. They have thereafter sought various information conformably with the requirements of the Cor~orations Lay and on the 10 September, 1992 threatened proceedings if the obligations imposed on the respondents by the Corporations Law were not complied with. Those obligations were not complied with, and on 23 September, 1992 an application was sought in this court
