“The court would not exercise its discretion under section 4(1)(b) of the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986 to make a disqualification order against a liquidator who had been guilty of any fraud in relation to the company or of any breach of his duty as such liquidator unless serious misconduct had been established. Where a liquidator applied pursuant to section 16(2) of the Act for a disqualification order under section 4 it was not a prerequisite that the liquidator should have a financial interest in the order being made.”
