Staff reporterDecember 7, 2020

The registration of Justin James Cadman as a registered liquidator was cancelled on 13 June 2018 following orders made in the Federal Circuit Court of Australia, which resulted in Mr Cadman being declared bankrupt.

On 19 June 2018, ASIC appointed replacement liquidators to the fifteen (15) vacant external administrations previously administered by Mr Cadman.

ASIC Commissioner John Price said, ‘ASIC has moved quickly to exercise the new powers under the insolvency regime to appoint a replacement liquidator and appreciates the assistance of the replacement liquidators Ms Moira Carter of BRI Ferrier NQ and Mr Todd Kelly of BDO (Nth QLD).’

Below is a list of the external administrations and replacement liquidator’s contact details should creditors have any concerns.

Background

Cairns-based Mr Cadman operated an insolvency and accounting practice firstly through a company called Mclaren Knight Pty Ltd (in liquidation), then later through another company called Mclaren Knight International Pty Ltd.

Mr Cadman had been a registered liquidator since August 2005.

Under section 40-20(1) of Schedule 2 (Schedule 2) of the Corporations Act 2001, a liquidator’s registration as a registered liquidator is automatically cancelled if a person becomes an insolvent under administration. Under section 40-111 of Schedule 2, ASIC may appoint another liquidator if a liquidator’s registration is suspended or cancelled. These new laws came into effect on 1 March 2017.
