I agree Sims has said this.
However, Sims may be working under the premise that Tusk was a Vanuatu company where players accounts in trust is not a requirement.
Tusk's Vanuatu lawyers may not have been aware that a portion of the company business was to be exercised in Queensland.
The Queensland law is quite clear that if ANY portion of a company and/or their subsiduarie's or agent's business is conducted in Queensland their laws that precedence.
This is definitely a possibility that should be pursued.
Otherwise be prepared to take only what Sims deems available for distribution to unsecured creditors which in my humble opinion will be less than 50 cents on the dollar.
The question then becomes would the directors of Tusk pony up a shortfall of several million dollars or spend a possible 2 years in jail?
