Clause 30

The court shall take cognizance of the conduct of the Official Assignee in his administration of the estate of a bankrupt, and if the Official Assignee does not faithfully perform his duties or duly observe all the requirements imposed on him by this Act, the rules or any other written law with respect to the performance of his duties, or if any complaint is made to the court by any creditor in regard thereto, the court shall inquire into the matter and take such action thereon as it may consider expedient.

The court may at any time require the Official Assignee to answer any inquiry made by it in relation to his administration of the estate of a bankrupt and may also direct an investigation to be made of the books and vouchers of the Official Assignee or examine him on oath concerning his administration of the estate.
