369: Inspector's report admissible in liquidation proceedings

You could also call this:

“Report from company inspection can be used as evidence in liquidation cases”

If someone inspects a company under section 365, or if information is shared under section 365F, 365G, or 365H, they will write a report. This report can be used as evidence in court when someone asks the court to appoint a liquidator for the company. A liquidator is a person who helps close down a company. The court will accept this report as evidence even if other laws or rules might not usually allow it.
