239ACJA: Provision of information and assistance to replacement deed administrator
or “Helping the new deed administrator take over by providing necessary information and support”

You could also call this:

“How much the deed administrator can charge for their work”

The deed administrator can charge a fair amount of money for doing their job and using their powers. This is called remuneration.

If someone thinks the deed administrator’s pay isn’t fair, they can ask the court to look at it. The court can then decide what a fair amount is. The people who can ask the court to do this are the deed administrator, a director or officer of the company, a creditor, or a shareholder.

If you’re a creditor or shareholder and you want to ask the court about the deed administrator’s pay, you need to get permission from the court first.
