The claimant bankrupt and his mother sought a vesting order under the 1986 Act in respect of the pier at Colwyn Bay and its associated dwelling which had been disclaimed by the trustee as onerous property.
Held: The court had power to hear an application under the section for the vesting a dwelling in its occupants even though that he might occupy only a part of the disclaimed property as his dwelling house and on such an application, it could make an order relating to only a part of the disclaimed property.
