89. Duties of Official Receiver
(1) The Official Receiver shall examine the statements transmitted to
him, and shall call the trustee to account for any misfeasance, neglect or
omission which may appear on such statements, and may require the trustee
to make good any loss the estate of the bankrupt may have sustained by
such misfeasance, neglect or omission.
(2) Where the trustee fails to comply with such requisition, the Official
Receiver may report the same to the Court, and the Court after hearing the
trustee, or in his absence on proof that he has been summoned to appear,
may order him to make good such loss, and may deal with him as provided
in section 86 (2) (b).
