Schedule 16, paragraph 13

On hearing an administration application the court may— make the administration order sought; dismiss the application; adjourn the hearing conditionally or unconditionally; make an interim order; treat the application as a winding-up petition and make any order which the court could make under section 125; make any other order which the court thinks appropriate. An appointment of an administrator by administration order takes effect— at a time appointed by the order, or where no time is appointed by the order, when the order is made. An interim order under sub-paragraph (1)(d) may, in particular— restrict the exercise of a power of the directors or the company; make provision conferring a discretion on the court or on a person qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to the company. This paragraph is subject to paragraph 39.
