(4) If it becomes necessary, in the opinion of the liquidator and the committee of inspection, to postpone the declaration of the dividend beyond the limit of 2 months, the liquidator shall give a fresh notice of his intention to declare a dividend to the Official Receiver in order that the same may be gazetted; but it shall not be necessary for the liquidator to give a fresh notice to such of the creditors mentioned in the statement of affairs as have not proved their debts. In all other respects the same procedure shall follow the fresh notice as would have followed the original notice.
(5) Upon the declaration of a dividend the liquidator shall forthwith transmit to the Official Receiver a list of the proofs filed with the Registrar under rule 101, which list shall be in the Form 68 or 69, as the case may be, and the liquidator shall, if so required by the Official Receiver, transmit to him, office copies of all lists of proofs filed by him up to the date of the declaration of the dividend.
(6) Dividends may at the request and risk of the person to whom they are payable be transmitted to him by post.
(7) If a person to whom dividends are payable desires that they shall be paid to some other person he may lodge with the liquidator a document in the Form 72 which shall be a sufficient authority for payment of the dividend to the person therein named.
(8) The Official Receiver when he is liquidator shall cause to be gazetted notice of his intention to declare a dividend and notice of his declaration thereof, and shall also at the same time give to creditors notice of such intention or of such declaration in like manner as notice thereof is required to be given by a liquidator other than the Official Receiver.
143. Every order by which the liquidator in a winding up by the court is authorized to make a return to contributories of the company shall, unless the court shall otherwise direct, contain or have appended thereto a schedule or list (which the liquidator shall prepare) setting out in a tabular form the full names and addresses of the persons to whom the return is to be paid, and the amount of money payable to each person, and particulars of the transfers of shares (if any) which have been made or the variations in the list of contributories which have arisen since the date of the settlement of the list of contributories and such other information as may be requisite to enable the return to be made. The schedule or list shall be in the Form 74 with such variations as circumstances shall require, and the liquidator shall send a notice of return to each contributory.
