(2) On an application under paragraph (1) the Department shall either make an appointment or decline to make one.

(5) In that notice or advertisement the trustee shall—
(a)state whether he proposes to summon a general meeting of the bankrupt’s creditors for the purpose of establishing a creditors' committee under Article 274, and
(b)if he does not propose to summon such a meeting, set out the power of the creditors under this Part to require him to summon one.
