Thought I'd share some info in case there is anyone else on here in the same boat as I.
I called the liquidators at Ferrier Hodgson to check if they intended to make a loss declaration for VET ordinary shares before 30 June. They said they will NOT be making a loss declaration as it is too early in the liquidation, but that there is very little chance of a return for ordinary shareholders (hardly surprising).
For those, like me, who want to crystallise a tax loss in FY16, this is not great.
