11. With respect to any receiver who shall neglect to submit his accounts to be audited or to pay over any balance in his hands, the judge may from time to time, when his subsequent accounts are produced to be audited, disallow the salary or allowance therein claimed by such receiver, and may also, if he shall think fit, charge him with interest at the rate of £5 per cent. per annum upon any balance so neglected to be paid by him during the time such balance shall appear to have remained in the hands of such receiver.

12. In case of any receiver failing to leave any account or affidavit, or to pass any account, or to make any payment or otherwise, the receiver or the parties, or any of them, may be required to attend before the judge to show cause why such account or affidavit has not been left, or such account passed or such payment made, or any other proper proceeding taken and thereupon the judge may give such directions and make such orders as shall be proper, including directions for the discharge of any receiver and the appointment of another, and any orders as to costs.

13. In every case in which an application is made for the appointment of a receiver by way of equitable execution, the judge in determining whether it is just or convenient that such appointment should be made shall have regard to the amount of the debt and costs claimed by the applicant, to the amount which may probably be obtained by the receiver, and to the probable costs of his appointment, and may, if he shall so think fit, direct any inquiries on these or other matters before making the appointment.

14. Where a receiver is appointed by way of equitable execution, fees may be charged and costs may be allowed as on an interlocutory application in an equitable action or matter.

Provided that

(1.) Where the amount of debt and costs due to the applicant exceeds fifty pounds, but does not exceed one hundred pounds, the total amount to be allowed for fees and costs (exclusive of the allowance to the receiver, but including the costs of obtaining his appointment, completing his security, passing his accounts, and obtaining his discharge) shall not exceed two and a half per cent. of the amount of such debt and costs in respect of fees, or the like amount in respect of costs.

(2.) Where the amount of such debt and costs exceeds twenty pounds but does not exceed fifty pounds, the total amount to be allowed for fees and costs shall not exceed one pound five shillings in respect of fees, or the like amount in respect of costs; and (3.) Where the amount of such debt and costs exceeds five pounds, but does not exceed twenty pounds, there may be allowed for fees and costs respectively such sums, not less than seven shillings and sixpence, and not exceeding one pound in each case as the judge shall direct;

(4.) Where the amount of debt and costs does not exceed fifty pounds, the judge may, instead of directing the receiver to give security direct that the applicant shall be answerable for the acts and defaults of the receiver, and that the receiver shall not receive more than the amount of the debt and costs due to the applicant, and the allowance to the receiver, and be allowed fees and costs of obtaining the order appointing the receiver without the leave of the judge.
