278: Expenses and remuneration payable out of assets of company
or “How liquidators are paid when closing a company”
You could also call this:

“Liquidator's role ends when company liquidation is complete”

When a company’s liquidation is finished, as described in section 249, the liquidator’s job is done. This means they no longer hold their position as liquidator for that company. However, it’s important to know that this rule doesn’t change or limit what section 284 or section 286 say. These other sections might have additional information about when or how a liquidator’s job ends.
