I want to make two brief points. First, clause 90(1) is infelicitously worded. After the word, ““information””, it should say, ““to assist that creditor to make an informed decision””. Secondly, clause 92(4)(d) refers to ““prescribed information””, but I cannot find an indication either in the explanatory notes or on the face of the Bill as to what that is. When I was an articled clerk doing such work about 20 years ago, such cases would go to what was known as ““an oral examination as to means””—I think that that involved form N39—to consider matters such as whether the debtor was employed. In such cases, the debtor answered questions under oath. I wonder what prescribed information a court would seek from a Ministry on application.
