Dissolution

(1)
If the Registrar, after holding an inquiry or making an inspection under
section 37
or on receipt of an application made by three-fourths of
                the members of a registered society, is of opinion that the society ought to be
                dissolved, he may make an order for the cancellation of the registration of the
                society.
(2)
Any member of a registered society may, within two months from the date of an
                order under subsection (1), appeal from such order to the Chief Executive.

(3)
Where no appeal is presented within two months from the making of an order
                cancelling the registration of a society, the order shall take effect on the expiry
                of that period. Where an appeal is presented within two months, the order shall not
                take effect until it is confirmed.
(4)
Where the Registrar makes an order for the cancellation of the registration of
                a society under subsection (1) he may make such further order as he may think fit
                for the custody of the books and documents and the protection of the assets of the
                society until the order cancelling registration takes effect.
(5)
No registered society shall be wound up save by an order of the
                Registrar.
