Key Principle

A statutory demand is not 'process' requiring strict personal service; the Insolvency Rules require the creditor only to do all that is reasonable to bring the demand to the debtor's attention, and defects in service are procedural irregularities that may be cured rather than rendering the demand or petition a nullity.
