    There is nothing in the act in regards to your question.

    It comes down to this.

    By issuing a work order, the OC is entering a contract.

    That means that as the work is completed, the OC is required to pay the invoice .

    If at the time the invoice is issued the OC does not have sufficient money to pay, that’s a breach of contract.

    It then falls back onto who knew, or should have known that the OC did not have the funds  to pay. They can be held ĺiable

    If the OC cannot pay the invoice, the creditor can ask for the tribunal to appoint a manager to the property, who will then take charge and raise a special levy ( no meeting required)

    It’s a tricky situation, especially if there are owners who don’t have the funds or can’t raise the funds necessary.
