Where the education administrator has made a statement of pre-administration costs under rule 3.8(10)(a), the education administrator (where the costs consist of fees charged or expenses incurred by the education administrator) or other insolvency practitioner (where the costs consist of fees charged or expenses incurred by that practitioner) must, before paying such costs, apply to the court for a determination of whether and to what extent the unpaid pre-administration costs are approved for payment.
