A2 Eligible companies¶

Schedule ZA1 contains provision for determining whether a company is an eligible company for the purposes of this Part.

Chapter 2 Obtaining a moratorium¶

A3 ^C1233^C1232Obtaining a moratorium by filing or lodging documents at court¶

1 This section applies to an eligible company that—

a is not subject to an outstanding winding-up petition, and

b is not an overseas company.

2 The directors of the company may obtain a moratorium for the company by filing the relevant documents with the court (for the relevant documents, see section A6).

3 For the purposes of this Chapter a company is “subject to an outstanding winding-up petition” if—

a a petition for the winding up of the company has been presented, and

b the petition has not been withdrawn or determined.

A4 ^C1234^C1235Obtaining a moratorium for company subject to winding-up petition¶

1 This section applies to an eligible company that is subject to an outstanding winding-up petition.

2 The directors of the company may apply to the court for a moratorium for the company.

3 The application must be accompanied by the relevant documents (for the relevant documents, see section A6).

4 On hearing the application the court may—

a make an order that the company should be subject to a moratorium, or

b make any other order which the court thinks appropriate.

5 The court may make an order under subsection (4)(a) only if it is satisfied that a moratorium for the company would achieve a better result for the company’s creditors as a whole than would be likely if the company were wound up (without first being subject to a moratorium).

A5 ^C1236Obtaining a moratorium for other overseas companies¶

1 This section applies to an eligible company that—

a is not subject to an outstanding winding-up petition, and

b is an overseas company.

2 The directors of the company may apply to the court for a moratorium for the company.

3 The application must be accompanied by the relevant documents (for the relevant documents, see section A6).

4 On hearing the application the court may—

A6 The relevant documents¶

1 For the purposes of this Chapter, “the relevant documents” are—

a a notice that the directors wish to obtain a moratorium,

b a statement from a qualified person (“the proposed monitor”) that the person—

i is a qualified person, and

ii consents to act as the monitor in relation to the proposed moratorium,

c a statement from the proposed monitor that the company is an eligible company,

d a statement from the directors that, in their view, the company is, or is likely to become, unable to pay its debts, and

^C1237^C1238e a statement from the proposed monitor that, in the proposed monitor’s view, it is likely that a moratorium for the company would result in the rescue of the company as a going concern.

2 Where it is proposed that more than one person should act as the monitor in relation to the proposed moratorium—

a each of them must make a statement under subsection (1)(b), (c) and (e), and

b the statement under subsection (1)(b) must specify—

i which functions (if any) are to be exercised by the persons acting jointly, and

ii which functions (if any) are to be exercised by any or all of the persons.

3 The rules may make provision about the date on which a statement comprised in the relevant documents must be made.

4 The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this section for the purposes of adding to the list of documents in subsection (1).

5 Regulations under subsection (4) are subject to the affirmative resolution procedure.

A7 Beginning of moratorium and appointment of monitor¶

1 A moratorium for a company comes into force at the time at which—

a in the case of a company to which section A3 applies, the relevant documents are filed with the court under subsection (2) of that section;

b in the case of a company to which section A4 applies, an order is made under section A4(4)(a);

c in the case of a company to which section A5 applies, an order is made under section A5(4)(a).

2 On the coming into force of a moratorium, the person or persons who made the statement mentioned in section A6(1)(b) become the monitor in relation to the moratorium.

A8 Obligations to notify where moratorium comes into force¶

1 As soon as reasonably practicable after a moratorium for a company comes into force, the directors must notify the monitor of that fact.

2 As soon as reasonably practicable after receiving a notice under subsection (1), the monitor must notify the following that a moratorium for the company has come into force—

a the registrar of companies,

b every creditor of the company of whose claim the monitor is aware,

c in a case where the company is or has been an employer in respect of an occupational pension scheme that is not a money purchase scheme, the Pensions Regulator, and

d in a case where the company is an employer in respect of such a pension scheme that is an eligible scheme within the meaning given by section 126 of the Pensions Act 2004, the Board of the Pension Protection Fund.

3 A notice under subsection (2) must specify—

a when the moratorium came into force, and

b when, subject to any alteration under or by virtue of any of the provisions mentioned in section A9(3) or (4), the moratorium will come to an end.

4 If the directors fail to comply with subsection (1), any director who did not have a reasonable excuse for the failure commits an offence.

5 If the monitor without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (2), the monitor commits an offence.

Chapter 3 Length of moratorium¶

Initial period¶

A9 End of the moratorium¶

1 A moratorium ends at the end of the initial period unless it is extended, or comes to an end sooner, under or by virtue of a provision mentioned in subsection (3) or (4).

2 In this Chapter “the initial period”, in relation to a moratorium, means the period of 20 business days beginning with the business day after the day on which the moratorium comes into force.

3 For provision under or by virtue of which a moratorium is or may be extended, see—

section A13 (extension by court on application of directors);
section A14 (extension while proposal for CVA pending);

5 A moratorium may not be extended under a provision mentioned in subsection (3) once it has come to an end.

6 Where the application of two or more of the provisions mentioned in subsections (3) and (4) would produce a different length of moratorium, the provision that applies last is to prevail (irrespective of whether that results in a shorter or longer moratorium).

Extension of moratorium¶

A10 Extension by directors without creditor consent¶

1 During the initial period, but after the first 15 business days of that period, the directors may extend the moratorium by filing with the court—

a a notice that the directors wish to extend the moratorium,

i moratorium debts, and

ii pre-moratorium debts for which the company does not have a payment holiday during the moratorium (see section A18),

c a statement from the directors that, in their view, the company is, or is likely to become, unable to pay its pre-moratorium debts, and

^C1239d a statement from the monitor that, in the monitor’s view, it is likely that the moratorium will result in the rescue of the company as a going concern.

2 The rules may make provision about the date on which a statement mentioned in subsection (1) must be made.

3 On the filing with the court of the documents mentioned in subsection (1), the moratorium is extended so that it ends at the end of the period—

A12 Creditor consent for the purposes of section A11¶

1 References in section A11 to creditor consent are to the consent of pre-moratorium creditors to a revised end date for the moratorium.

2 The decision as to consent is to be made using a qualifying decision procedure.

3 The revised end date must be a date before the end of the period of one year beginning with the first day of the initial period.

4 In this section “pre-moratorium creditor” means a creditor in respect of a pre-moratorium debt—

b which has not been paid or otherwise discharged.

5 In determining for the purposes of subsection (4) what counts as a pre-moratorium debt for which the company has a payment holiday during the moratorium, sections A18(3) and A53(1)(b) apply as if the references to the moratorium were to the moratorium as proposed to be extended.

6 The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this section for the purposes of changing the definition of “pre-moratorium creditor”.

6 Subsection (7) applies where—

6 The monitor may not give consent under this section if the granting of security is an offence under section A27.

A27 Prohibition on entering into market contracts etc¶

c the payment is required by section A31(3) or A32(3).

2 In subsection (1)—

3 The monitor may give consent under subsection (1)(a) only if the monitor thinks that it will support the rescue of the company as a going concern.

4 In deciding whether to give consent under subsection (1)(a), the monitor is entitled to rely on information provided by the company unless the monitor has reason to doubt its accuracy.

5 If the company makes a payment to which subsection (1) applies otherwise than as authorised by that subsection—

b any officer of the company who without reasonable excuse authorised or permitted the payment commits an offence.

A29 ^C1227Restrictions on disposal of property¶

1 During a moratorium, the company may dispose of its property only if authorised by subsection (2) or (5).

2 In the case of property that is not subject to a security interest, the company may dispose of the property if—

a the disposal is made in the ordinary way of the company’s business,

b the monitor consents, or

c the disposal is in pursuance of a court order.

3 The monitor may give consent under subsection (2)(b) only if the monitor thinks that it will support the rescue of the company as a going concern.

6 If the company disposes of its property during the moratorium otherwise than as authorised by this section—

a the company commits an offence, and

b any officer of the company who without reasonable excuse authorised or permitted the disposal commits an offence.

A30 ^C1227Restrictions on disposal of hire-purchase property¶

a section A32(1), or

Disposals of property free from charges etc¶

A31 ^C1227Disposal of charged property free from charge¶

1 During a moratorium, the company may, with the permission of the court, dispose of property which is subject to a security interest as if it were not subject to the security interest.

2 The court may give permission under subsection (1) only if the court thinks that it will support the rescue of the company as a going concern.

3 Where the court gives permission under subsection (1) other than in relation to a floating charge, the company must apply the following towards discharging the sums secured—

a the net proceeds of disposal of the property, and

b any money required to be added to the net proceeds so as to produce the amount determined by the court as the net amount which would be realised on a sale of the property in the open market by a willing vendor.

4 Where the permission relates to two or more security interests, the condition in subsection (3) requires the application of money in the order of the priorities of the security interests.

5 Where property subject to a floating charge is disposed of under subsection (1), the holder of the floating charge has the same priority in respect of acquired property as they had in respect of the property disposed of.

6 In subsection (5) “acquired property” means property of the company which directly or indirectly represents the property disposed of.

7 Where the court makes an order giving permission under subsection (1), the directors must, within the period of 14 days beginning with the date of the order, send a copy of it to the registrar of companies.

8 If the directors fail to comply with subsection (7), any director who did not have a reasonable excuse for the failure commits an offence.

9 Where property in Scotland is disposed of under subsection (1), the company must grant to the disponee an appropriate document of transfer or conveyance of the property, and—

a that document, or

b recording, intimation or registration of that document (where recording, intimation or registration of the document is a legal requirement for completion of title to the property),

has the effect of disencumbering the property of or, as the case may be, freeing the property from, the security interest.

10 If a company fails to comply with subsection (3) or (9)—

a the company commits an offence, and

b any officer of the company who without reasonable excuse authorised or permitted the failure commits an offence.

11 Subsection (1) does not apply in relation to any property which is subject to a financial collateral arrangement, a market charge, a system-charge or a collateral security (as defined by section A27).

A32 ^C1227Disposal of hire-purchase property¶

1 During a moratorium, the company may, with the permission of the court, dispose of goods which are in the possession of the company under a hire-purchase agreement as if all of the rights of the owner under the agreement were vested in the company.

2 The court may give permission under subsection (1) only if the court thinks that it will support the rescue of the company as a going concern.

3 Where the court gives permission under subsection (1), the company must apply the following towards discharging the sums payable under the hire-purchase agreement—

a the net proceeds of disposal of the goods, and

b any additional money required to be added to the net proceeds so as to produce the amount determined by the court as the net amount which would be realised on a sale of the goods in the open market by a willing vendor.

4 If a company fails to comply with subsection (3)—

a the company commits an offence, and

b any officer of the company who without reasonable excuse authorised or permitted the failure commits an offence.

5 Where the court makes an order giving permission under subsection (1), the directors must, within the period of 14 days beginning with the date of the order, send a copy of it to the registrar of companies.

6 If the directors fail to comply with subsection (5), any director who did not have a reasonable excuse for the failure commits an offence.

7 In Scotland, where goods in the possession of the company under a hire-purchase agreement are disposed of under subsection (1), the disposal has the effect of extinguishing, as against the disponee, all rights of the owner of the goods under the agreement.

Effect of contravention of certain provisions of Chapter¶

A33 Contravention of certain requirements imposed under this Chapter¶

The fact that a company contravenes section A19 or any of sections A25 to A32 does not—

a make any transaction void or unenforceable, or

b affect the validity of any other thing.

CHAPTER 5 The monitor¶

A34 Status of monitor¶

The monitor in relation to a moratorium is an officer of the court.

A35 Monitoring¶

^C12421 During a moratorium, the monitor must monitor the company’s affairs for the purpose of forming a view as to whether it remains likely that the moratorium will result in the rescue of the company as a going concern.

2 In forming the view mentioned in subsection (1), the monitor is entitled to rely on information provided by the company, unless the monitor has reason to doubt its accuracy.

A36 Provision of information to monitor¶

1 The monitor may require the directors of the company to provide any information required by the monitor for the purpose of carrying out the monitor’s functions.

2 The directors must comply with a requirement to provide information as soon as practicable.

The monitor in relation to a moratorium may apply to the court for directions about the carrying out of the monitor’s functions.

A38 Termination of moratorium by monitor¶

a the monitor thinks that the moratorium is no longer likely to result in the rescue of the company as a going concern,

b the monitor thinks that the objective of rescuing the company as a going concern has been achieved,

c the monitor thinks that, by reason of a failure by the directors to comply with a requirement under section A36, the monitor is unable properly to carry out the monitor’s functions, or

d the monitor thinks that the company is unable to pay any of the following that have fallen due—

i moratorium debts;

ii pre-moratorium debts for which the company does not have a payment holiday during the moratorium (see section A18).

2 The rules may provide for debts that are to be disregarded for the purposes of subsection (1)(d).

3 On the filing with the court of a notice under subsection (1), the moratorium comes to an end.

4 The rules may make provision about the timing of a notice required to be given under subsection (1).

5 The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this section for the purposes of changing the circumstances in which the monitor must bring a moratorium to an end under subsection (1).

6 Regulations under subsection (5) are subject to the affirmative resolution procedure.

7 See also section A17 (obligations to notify change in end of moratorium).

A39 Replacement of monitor or appointment of additional monitor¶

1 The court may make an order authorising the appointment of a qualified person to act as the monitor in relation to a moratorium instead of, or in addition to, a person who already acts as the monitor.

2 The court may make an order providing that a person ceases to act as the monitor in relation to a moratorium.

3 An order under subsection (1) or (2) may be made only on an application by the directors or the monitor.

4 The court may make an order authorising the appointment of a monitor under subsection (1) only if the person has provided the court with a statement that the person—

a is a qualified person, and

b consents to act as the monitor in relation to the moratorium.

5 Where it is proposed that more than one person should act as the monitor in relation to the moratorium, the statement under subsection (4) must specify—

a which functions (if any) are to be exercised by the persons acting jointly, and

b which functions (if any) are to be exercised by any or all of the persons.

6 The rules may make provision about the date on which the statement under subsection (4) must be made.

7 Where the court makes an order under subsection (1) or (2) the person begins to act as the monitor, or ceases to act as the monitor, in relation to the moratorium at the time specified in, or determined in accordance with, the order (“the relevant time”).

8 As soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant time, the monitor must notify the following of the effect of the order—

a the registrar of companies,

b every creditor of the company of whose claim the monitor is aware,

c in a case where the company is or has been an employer in respect of an occupational pension scheme that is not a money purchase scheme, the Pensions Regulator, and

9 If the monitor without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (8), the monitor commits an offence.

A40 Application of Part where two or more persons act as monitor¶

1 Where two or more persons act jointly as the monitor—

a a reference in this Act to the monitor is a reference to those persons acting jointly;

b where an offence of omission is committed by the monitor, each of the persons appointed to act jointly—

i commits the offence, and

ii may be proceeded against and punished individually.

2 Where persons act jointly in respect of only some of the functions of the monitor, subsection (1) applies only in relation to those functions.

3 Where two or more persons act concurrently as the monitor a reference in this Act to the monitor is a reference to any of the persons appointed (or any combination of them).

A41 Presumption of validity¶

An act of the monitor is valid in spite of a defect in the monitor’s appointment or qualification.

Chapter 6 Challenges¶

A42 Challenge to monitor’s actions¶

6 Where an application under subsection (1) relates to the monitor bringing a moratorium to an end under section A38(1), an order under subsection (4) may, in particular, provide that the moratorium is not to be taken into account for the purposes of paragraph 2(1)(b) of Schedule ZA1 (company not eligible for moratorium if moratorium in force within previous 12 months).

7 In making an order under subsection (4) the court must have regard to the need to safeguard the interests of persons who have dealt with the company in good faith and for value.

8 See also section A17 (obligations to notify change in end of moratorium).

^C1556A43 Challenges to monitor remuneration in insolvency proceedings¶

1 The rules may confer on an administrator or liquidator of a company the right to apply to the court on the ground that remuneration charged by the monitor in relation to a prior moratorium for the company was excessive.

2 Rules under subsection (1) may (among other things) make provision as to—

d bring the moratorium to an end and make such consequential provision as the court thinks fit.

5 In making an order under subsection (3) the court must have regard to the need to safeguard the interests of persons who have dealt with the company in good faith and for value.

6 See also section A17 (obligations to notify change in end of moratorium).

A45 Challenge brought by Board of the Pension Protection Fund¶

1 This section applies where—

4 In this section “eligible scheme” has the meaning given by section 126 of the Pensions Act 2004.

CHAPTER 7 Offences: general¶

A46 Offence of fraud etc during or in anticipation of moratorium¶

1 An officer of a company commits an offence if, during a moratorium for the company or at any time within the period of 12 months ending with the day on which a moratorium for the company comes into force, the officer—

a does any of the things mentioned in subsection (2), or

b was privy to the doing by others of any of the things mentioned in subsection (2)(c), (d) and (e).

2 Those things are—

a concealing any part of the company’s property to the value of £500 or more, or concealing any debt due to or from the company,

b fraudulently removing any part of the company’s property to the value of £500 or more,

c concealing, destroying, mutilating or falsifying any document affecting or relating to the company’s property or affairs,

d making any false entry in any document affecting or relating to the company’s property or affairs,

e fraudulently parting with, altering or making any omission in any document affecting or relating to the company’s property or affairs, or

f pawning, pledging or disposing of any property of the company which has been obtained on credit and has not been paid for (unless the pawning, pledging or disposal was in the ordinary way of the company’s business).

3 It is a defence—

a for a person charged with an offence under subsection (1) in respect of any of the things mentioned in subsection (2)(a) or (f) to prove that the person had no intent to defraud, and

b for a person charged with an offence under subsection (1) in respect of any of the things mentioned in subsection (2)(c) or (d) to prove that the person had no intent to conceal the state of affairs of the company or to defeat the law.

4 Where a person pawns, pledges or disposes of any property of a company in circumstances which amount to an offence under subsection (1), every person who takes in pawn or pledge, or otherwise receives, the property commits an offence if the person knows it to be pawned, pledged or disposed of in circumstances which—

a amount to an offence under subsection (1), or

b would, if a moratorium were obtained for the company within the period of 12 months beginning with the day on which the pawning, pledging or disposal took place, amount to an offence under subsection (1).

5 In this section, “officer” includes a shadow director.

A47 Offence of false representation etc to obtain a moratorium¶

1 An officer of a company commits an offence if, for the purpose of obtaining a moratorium for the company or an extension of a moratorium for the company, the officer—

a makes any false representation, or

b fraudulently does, or omits to do, anything.

2 Subsection (1) applies even if no moratorium or extension is obtained.

3 In this section, “officer” includes a shadow director.

A48 Prosecution of delinquent officers of company¶

1 This section applies where a moratorium has been obtained for a company.

2 If it appears to the monitor that any past or present officer of the company has committed an offence in connection with the moratorium, the monitor must forthwith—

a report the matter to the appropriate authority, and

b provide the appropriate authority with such information and give the authority such access to and facilities for inspecting and taking copies of documents (being information or documents in the possession or under the control of the monitor and relating to the matter in question) as the authority requires.

3 In subsection (2), “the appropriate authority”—

a in the case of a company registered in England and Wales, means the Secretary of State,

b in the case of a company registered in Scotland, means the Lord Advocate, and

c in the case of an unregistered company means—

i if it has a principal place of business in England and Wales but not Scotland, the Secretary of State,

ii if it has a principal place of business in Scotland but not England and Wales, the Lord Advocate,

iii if it has a principal place of business in both England and Wales and Scotland, the Secretary of State and the Lord Advocate, and

iv if it does not have a principal place of business in England and Wales or Scotland, the Secretary of State.

4 Where a matter is reported to the Secretary of State under subsection (2), the Secretary of State may, for the purpose of investigating the matter and such other matters relating to the affairs of the company as appear to the Secretary of State to require investigation, exercise any of the powers which are exercisable by inspectors appointed under section 431 or 432 of the Companies Act 1985.

5 For the purpose of such an investigation any obligation imposed on a person by any provision of the Companies Acts to produce documents or give information to, or otherwise to assist, inspectors so appointed is to be regarded as an obligation similarly to assist the Secretary of State in the Secretary of State’s investigation.

6 Where a question is put to a person in exercise of the powers conferred by subsection (4), the person’s answer may be used in evidence against them.

7 However, in criminal proceedings in which the person is charged with an offence other than a false statement offence—

a no evidence relating to the answer may be adduced, and

b no question relating to it may be asked,

by or on behalf of the prosecution, unless evidence relating to it is adduced, or a question relating to it is asked, in the proceedings by or on behalf of the person.

8 In subsection (7) “false statement offence” means—

a an offence under section 2 or 5 of the Perjury Act 1911 (false statements made on oath otherwise than in judicial proceedings or made otherwise than on oath), or

b an offence under section 44(1) or (2) of the Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995 (false statements made on oath or otherwise than on oath).

9 Where a prosecuting authority institutes criminal proceedings following any report under subsection (2), the monitor, and every officer and agent of the company past and present (other than the defendant or defender), must give the authority all assistance in connection with the prosecution which they are reasonably able to give.

10 For this purpose—

“agent” includes any banker or solicitor of the company and any person employed by the company as auditor, whether that person is or is not an officer of the company;
“prosecuting authority” means the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Lord Advocate or the Secretary of State.

11 The court may, on the application of the prosecuting authority, direct a person who has failed to comply with subsection (9) to comply with it.

1A In this section—

a the “relevant qualifying decision procedure” means the qualifying decision procedure in which the company's creditors decide whether to approve a voluntary arrangement;

b references to a decision made in the relevant qualifying decision procedure include any other decision made in that qualifying decision procedure.

2 The persons who may apply under subsection (1) are—

b with the consent of the Secretary of State, by the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority,

on the ground that the voluntary arrangement is not consistent with the achievement of the objective of the energy administration.

but (subject to that) an application made by a person within subsection (2)(aa) on the ground that the voluntary arrangement prejudices his interests may be made after the arrangement has ceased to have effect, unless it came to an end prematurely.

4 Where on such an application the court is satisfied as to either of the grounds mentioned in subsection (1) or, in the case of an application under subsection (2A), as to the ground mentioned in that subsection, it may do any of the following, namely—

a revoke or suspend any decision approving the voluntary arrangement which has effect under section 4A or, in a case falling within subsection (1)(b), any decision taken by the meeting of the company, or in the relevant qualifying decision procedure, which has effect under that section;

i to seek a decision from the company's creditors (using a qualifying decision procedure) as to whether they approve any revised proposal the person who made the original proposal may make, or

6 In a case where the court, on an application under this section with respect to any meeting or relevant qualifying decision procedure —

a gives a direction under subsection (4)(b) or (c), or

b revokes or suspends an approval under subsection (4)(a) or (5),

the court may give such supplemental directions as it thinks fit and, in particular, directions with respect to things done under the voluntary arrangement since it took effect.

7 Except in pursuance of the preceding provisions of this section,

a a decision taken at a company meeting summoned under section 3 is not invalidated by any irregularity at or in relation to the meeting , and

b a decision of the company's creditors made in the relevant qualifying decision procedure is not invalidated by any irregularity in relation to the relevant qualifying decision procedure.

^C15266A False representations, etc.¶

1 If, for the purpose of obtaining the approval of the members or creditors of a company to a proposal for a voluntary arrangement, a person who is an officer of the company—

a makes any false representation, or

b fraudulently does, or omits to do, anything,

he commits an offence.

2 Subsection (1) applies even if the proposal is not approved.

3 For purposes of this section “officer” includes a shadow director.

4 A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable to imprisonment or a fine, or both.

^C32^C1094^C15267 Implementation of proposal.¶

1 This section applies where a voluntary arrangement has effect under section 4A.

2 The person who is for the time being carrying out in relation to the voluntary arrangement the functions conferred—

a on the nominee by virtue of the approval of the voluntary arrangement by the company or its creditors (or both) pursuant to section 3,

b by virtue of section 2(4) or 4(2) on a person other than the nominee,

shall be known as the supervisor of the voluntary arrangement.

3 If any of the company’s creditors or any other person is dissatisfied by any act, omission or decision of the supervisor, he may apply to the court; and on the application the court may—

a confirm, reverse or modify any act or decision of the supervisor,

b give him directions, or

c make such other order as it thinks fit.

4 The supervisor—

a may apply to the court for directions in relation to any particular matter arising under the voluntary arrangement, and

b is included among the persons who may apply to the court for the winding up of the company or for an administration order to be made in relation to it.

5 The court may, whenever—

a it is expedient to appoint a person to carry out the functions of the supervisor, and

b it is inexpedient, difficult or impracticable for an appointment to be made without the assistance of the court,

make an order appointing a person who is qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner ^F888... in relation to the voluntary arrangement, either in substitution for the existing supervisor or to fill a vacancy.

6 The power conferred by subsection (5) is exercisable so as to increase the number of persons exercising the functions of supervisor or, where there is more than one person exercising those functions, so as to replace one or more of those persons.

^C33^C15267A Prosecution of delinquent officers of company.¶

1 This section applies where the approval of a voluntary arrangement in relation to a company has taken effect under section 4A.

^C342 If it appears to the supervisor that any past or present officer of the company has committed an offence in connection with the voluntary arrangement, the supervisor must forthwith

a report the matter to the appropriate authority, and

b provide the appropriate authority with such information and give the authority such access to and facilities for inspecting and taking copies of documents (being information or documents in the possession or under the control of the ^F1472... supervisor and relating to the matter in question) as the authority requires.

In this subsection, “the appropriate authority” means—
1. in the case of a company registered in England and Wales, the Secretary of State, and
2. in the case of a company registered in Scotland, the Lord Advocate.

3 Where a report is made to the Secretary of State under subsection (2), he may, for the purpose of investigating the matter reported to him and such other matters relating to the affairs of the company as appear to him to require investigation, exercise any of the powers which are exercisable by inspectors appointed under section 431 or 432 of the the Companies Act 1985 to investigate a company’s affairs.

4 For the purpose of such an investigation any obligation imposed on a person by any provision of the the Companies Acts to produce documents or give information to, or otherwise to assist, inspectors so appointed is to be regarded as an obligation similarly to assist the Secretary of State in his investigation.

5 An answer given by a person to a question put to him in exercise of the powers conferred by subsection (3) may be used in evidence against him.

6 However, in criminal proceedings in which that person is charged with an offence to which this subsection applies—

a no evidence relating to the answer may be adduced, and

b no question relating to it may be asked,

by or on behalf of the prosecution, unless evidence relating to it is adduced, or a question relating to it is asked, in the proceedings by or on behalf of that person.

7 Subsection (6) applies to any offence other than—

a an offence under section 2 or 5 of the ^M1Perjury Act 1911 (false statements made on oath otherwise than in judicial proceedings or made otherwise than on oath), or

b an offence under section 44(1) or (2) of the ^M2Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995 (false statements made on oath or otherwise than on oath).

8 Where a prosecuting authority institutes criminal proceedings following any report under subsection (2), the ^F1473... supervisor, and every officer and agent of the company past and present (other than the defendant or defender), shall give the authority all assistance in connection with the prosecution which he is reasonably able to give.

For this purpose—

“agent” includes any banker or solicitor of the company and any person employed by the company as auditor, whether that person is or is not an officer of the company,
“prosecuting authority” means the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Lord Advocate or the Secretary of State.

9 The court may, on the application of the prosecuting authority, direct any person referred to in subsection (8) to comply with that subsection if he has failed to do so.

^F36^C15267B Arrangements coming to an end prematurely.¶

For the purposes of this Part, a voluntary arrangement the approval of which has taken effect under section 4A ^F1474... comes to an end prematurely if, when it ceases to have effect, it has not been fully implemented in respect of all persons bound by the arrangement by virtue of section 5(2)(b)(i) ^F1475....

a notice of the petition shall be given forthwith to any person who has appointed, or is or may be entitled to appoint, an administrative receiver of the company, and to such other persons as may be prescribed, and

b the petition shall not be withdrawn except with the leave of the court.

3 Where the court is satisfied that there is an administrative receiver of the company, the court shall dismiss the petition unless it is also satisfied either—

a that the person by whom or on whose behalf the receiver was appointed has consented to the making of the order, or

b that, if an administration order were made, any security by virtue of which the receiver was appointed would—

i be void against the administrator to any extent by virtue of the provisions of Part XII of the Companies Act 1985 (registration of company charges),

i be liable to be released or discharged under sections 238 to 240 in Part VI (transactions at an undervalue and preferences),

ii be avoided under section 245 in that Part (avoidance of floating charges), or

iii be challengeable under section 242 (gratuitous alienations) or 243 (unfair preferences) in that Part, or under any rule of law in Scotland.

^C802^C8034 Subject to subsection (3), on hearing a petition the court may dismiss it, or adjourn the hearing conditionally or unconditionally, or make an interim order or any other order that it thinks fit.

^C804^C8055 Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (4), an interim order under that subsection may restrict the exercise of any powers of the directors or of the company (whether by reference to the consent of the court or of a person qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to the company, or otherwise).

Administrators¶

^C823^C82413 Appointment of administrator.¶

1 The administrator of a company shall be appointed either by the administration order or by an order under the next subsection.

2 If a vacancy occurs by death, resignation or otherwise in the office of the administrator, the court may by order fill the vacancy.

3 An application for an order under subsection (2) may be made—

a by any continuing administrator of the company; or

^C825b where there is no such administrator, by a creditors’ committee established under section 26 below; or

c where there is no such administrator and no such committee, by the company or the directors or by any creditor or creditors of the company.

^C826^C82714 General powers.¶

1 The administrator of a company—

a may do all such things as may be necessary for the management of the affairs, business and property of the company, and

b without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (a), has the powers specified in Schedule 1 to this Act;

and in the application of that Schedule to the administrator of a company the words “he” and “him” refer to the administrator.

2 The administrator also has power—

a to remove any director of the company and to appoint any person to be a director of it, whether to fill a vacancy or otherwise, and

b to call any meeting of the members or creditors of the company.

3 The administrator may apply to the court for directions in relation to any particular matter arising in connection with the carrying out of his functions.

4 Any power conferred on the company or its officers, whether by this Act or the Companies Act or by the memorandum or articles of association, which could be exercised in such a way as to interfere with the exercise by the administrator of his powers is not exercisable except with the consent of the administrator, which may be given either generally or in relation to particular cases.

5 In exercising his powers the administrator is deemed to act as the company’s agent.

6 A person dealing with the administrator in good faith and for value is not concerned to inquire whether the administrator is acting within his powers.

^C828^C82915 Power to deal with charged property, etc.¶

^C8301 The administrator of a company may dispose of or otherwise exercise his powers in relation to any property of the company which is subject to a security to which this subsection applies as if the property were not subject to the security.

^C8302 Where, on an application by the administrator, the court is satisifed that the disposal (with or without other assets) of—

a any property of the company subject to a security to which this subsection applies, or

b any goods in the possession of the company under a hire-purchase agreement,

would be likely to promote the purpose or one or more of the purposes specified in the administration order, the court may by order authorise the administrator to dispose of the property as if it were not subject to the security or to dispose of the goods as if all rights of the owner under the hire-purchase agreement were vested in the company.

3 Subsection (1) applies to any security which, as created, was a floating charge; and subsection (2) applies to any other security.

4 Where property is disposed of under subsection (1), the holder of the security has the same priority in respect of any property of the company directly or indirectly representing the property disposed of as he would have had in respect of the property subject to the security.

5 It shall be a condition of an order under subsection (2) that—

a the net proceeds of the disposal, and

b where those proceeds are less than such amount as may be determined by the court to be the net amount which would be realised on a sale of the property or goods in the open market by a willing vendor, such sums as may be required to make good the deficiency,

shall be applied towards discharging the sums secured by the security or payable under the hire-purchase agreement.

6 Where a condition imposed in pursuance of subsection (5) relates to two or more securities, that condition requires the net proceeds of the disposal and, where paragraph (b) of that subsection applies, the sums mentioned in that paragraph to be applied towards discharging the sums secured by those securities in the order of their priorities.

7 An office copy of an order under subsection (2) shall, within 14 days after the making of the order, be sent by the administrator to the registrar of companies.

8 If the administrator without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (7), he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

9 References in this section to hire-purchase agreements include conditional sale agreements, chattel leasing agreements and retention of title agreements.

^C831^C83216 Operation of s. 15 in Scotland.¶

1 Where property is disposed of under section 15 in its application to Scotland, the administrator shall grant to the disponee an appropriate document of transfer or conveyance of the property, and—

a that document, or

b where any recording, intimation or registration of the document is a legal requirement for completion of title to the property, that recording, intimation or registration,

has the effect of disencumbering the property of or, as the case may be, freeing the property from the security.

2 Where goods in the possession of the company under a hire-purchase agreement, conditional sale agreement, chattel leasing agreement or retention of title agreement are disposed of under section 15 in its application to Scotland, the disposal has the effect of extinguishing, as against the disponee, all rights of the owner of the goods under the agreement.

^C833^C83417 General duties.¶

1 The administrator of a company shall, on his appointment, take into his custody or under his control all the property to which the company is or appears to be entitled.

2 The administrator shall manage the affairs, business and property of the company—

a at any time before proposals have been approved (with or without modifications) under section 24 below, in accordance with any directions given by the court, and

b at any time after proposals have been so approved, in accordance with those proposals as from time to time revised, whether by him or a predecessor of his.

3 The administrator shall summon a meeting of the company’s creditors if—

a he is requested, in accordance with the rules, to do so by one-tenth, in value, of the company’s creditors, or

b he is directed to do so by the court.

^C835^C83618 Discharge or variation of administration order.¶

^C8371 The administrator of a company may at any time apply to the court for the administration order to be discharged, or to be varied so as to specify an additional purpose.

2 The administrator shall make an application under this section if—

a it appears to him that the purpose or each of the purposes specified in the order either has been achieved or is incapable of achievement, or

b he is required to do so by a meeting of the company’s creditors summoned for the purpose in accordance with the rules.

3 On the hearing of an application under this section, the court may by order discharge or vary the administration order and make such consequential provision as it thinks fit, or adjourn the hearing conditionally or unconditionally, or make an interim order or any other order it thinks fit.

^C8384 Where the administration order is discharged or varied the administrator shall, within 14 days after the making of the order effecting the discharge or variation, send an office copy of that order to the registrar of companies.

5 If the administrator without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (4), he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

^C839^C84019 Vacation of office.¶

1 The administrator of a company may at any time be removed from office by order of the court and may, in the prescribed circumstances, resign his office by giving notice of his resignation to the court.

2 The administrator shall vacate office if—

a he ceases to be qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to the company, or

b the administration order is discharged.

3 Where at any time a person ceases to be administrator, the following subsections apply.

^C8414 His remuneration and any expenses properly incurred by him shall be charged on and paid out of any property of the company which is in his custody or under his control at that time in priority to any security to which section 15(1) then applies.

5 Any sums payable in respect of debts or liabilities incurred, while he was administrator, under contracts entered into ^F679. . . by him or a predecessor of his in the carrying out of his or the predecessor’s functions shall be charged on and paid out of any such property as is mentioned in subsection (4) in priority to any charge arising under that subsection.

6 ^F680 Any sums payable in respect of liabilities incurred, while he was administrator, under contracts of employment adopted by him or a predecessor of his in the carrying out of his or the predecessor’s functions shall, to the extent that the liabilities are qualifying liabilities, be charged on and paid out of any such property as is mentioned in subsection (4) and enjoy the same priority as any sums to which subsection (5) applies.

^F681For this purpose, the administrator is not to be taken to have adopted a contract of employment by reason of anything done or omitted to be done within 14 days after his appointment.

7 For the purposes of subsection (6), a liability under a contract of employment is a qualifying liability if—

a it is a liability to pay a sum by way of wages or salary or contribution to an occupational pension scheme, and

b it is in respect of services rendered wholly or partly after the adoption of the contract.

8 There shall be disregarded for the purposes of subsection (6) so much of any qualifying liability as represents payment in respect of services rendered before the adoption of the contract.

9 For the purposes of subsections (7) and (8)—

a wages or salary payable in respect of a period of holiday or absence from work through sickness or other good cause are deemed to be wages or (as the case may be) salary in respect of services rendered in that period, and

b a sum payable in lieu of holiday is deemed to be wages or (as the case may be) salary in respect of services rendered in the period by reference to which the holiday entitlement arose.

10 In subsection (9)(a), the reference to wages or salary payable in respect of a period of holiday includes any sums which, if they had been paid, would have been treated for the purposes of the enactments relating to social security as earnings in respect of that period.

^C842^C84320 Release of administrator.¶

1 A person who has ceased to be the administrator of a company has his release with effect from the following time, that is to say—

a in the case of a person who has died, the time at which notice is given to the court in accordance with the rules that he has ceased to hold office;

b in any other case, such time as the court may determine.

2 Where a person has his release under this section, he is, with effect from the time specified above, discharged from all liability both in respect of acts or omissions of his in the administration and otherwise in relation to his conduct as administrator.

3 However, nothing in this section prevents the exercise, in relation to a person who has had his release as above, of the court’s powers under section 212 in Chapter X of Part IV (summary remedy against delinquent directors, liquidators, etc.).

Ascertainment and investigation of company’s affairs¶

^C844^C84521 Information to be given by administrator.¶

1 Where an administration order has been made, the administrator shall—

a forthwith send to the company and publish in the prescribed manner a notice of the order, and

d those who are or have been within that year officers of or in the employment of a company which is, or within that year was, an officer of the company.

In this subsection “employment” includes employment under a contract for services.

4 Where any persons are required under this section to submit a statement of affairs to the administrator, they shall do so (subject to the next subsection) before the end of the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the prescribed notice of the requirement is given to them by the administrator.

^C8505 The administrator, if he thinks fit, may—

a at any time release a person from an obligation imposed on him under subsection (1) or (2), or

b either when giving notice under subsection (4) or subsequently, extend the period so mentioned;

and where the administrator has refused to exercise a power conferred by this subsection, the court, if it thinks fit, may exercise it.

2 This Chapter does not apply to receivers appointed under Chapter 2 of this Part (Scotland).

29 Definitions.¶

1 It is hereby declared that, except where the context otherwise requires—

a a receiver or manager of the whole (or substantially the whole) of a company’s property appointed by or on behalf of the holders of any debentures of the company secured by a charge which, as created, was a floating charge, or by such a charge and one or more other securities; or

b a person who would be such a receiver or manager but for the appointment of some other person as the receiver of part of the company’s property.

30 Disqualification of body corporate from acting as receiver.¶

A body corporate is not qualified for appointment as receiver of the property of a company, and any body corporate which acts as such a receiver is liable to a fine.

31 Disqualification of bankrupt or person in respect of whom a debt relief order is made ¶

1 A person commits an offence if he acts as receiver or manager of the property of a company on behalf of debenture holders while—

a he is an undischarged bankrupt,

aa a moratorium period under a debt relief order applies in relation to him, or

32 Power for court to appoint official receiver.¶

Where application is made to the court to appoint a receiver on behalf of the debenture holders or other creditors of a company which is being wound up by the court, the official receiver may be appointed.

Receivers and managers appointed out of court¶

33 Time from which appointment is effective.¶

1 The appointment of a person as a receiver or manager of a company’s property under powers contained in an instrument—

a is of no effect unless it is accepted by that person before the end of the business day next following that on which the instrument of appointment is received by him or on his behalf, and

b subject to this, is deemed to be made at the time at which the instrument of appointment is so received.

2 This section applies to the appointment of two or more persons as joint receivers or managers of a company’s property under powers contained in an instrument, subject to such modifications as may be prescribed by the rules.

34 Liability for invalid appointment.¶

Where the appointment of a person as the receiver or manager of a company’s property under powers contained in an instrument is discovered to be invalid (whether by virtue of the invalidity of the instrument or otherwise), the court may order the person by whom or on whose behalf the appointment was made to indemnify the person appointed against any liability which arises solely by reason of the invalidity of the appointment.

^C4335 Application to court for directions.¶

1 A receiver or manager of the property of a company appointed under powers contained in an instrument, or the persons by whom or on whose behalf a receiver or manager has been so appointed, may apply to the court for directions in relation to any particular matter arising in connection with the performance of the functions of the receiver or manager.

c where the receiver or manager has been paid or has retained for his remuneration for any period before the making of the order any amount in excess of that so fixed for that period, extends to requiring him or his personal representatives to account for the excess or such part of it as may be specified in the order.

But the power conferred by pararaph (c) shall not be exercised as respects any period before the making of the application for the order under this section, unless in the court’s opinion there are special circumstances making it proper for the power to be exercised.

3 The court may from time to time on an application made either by the liquidator or by the receiver or manager, vary or amend an order made under subsection (1).

37 Liability for contracts, etc.¶

1 A receiver or manager appointed under powers contained in an instrument (other than an administrative receiver) is, to the same extent as if he had been appointed by order of the court—

a personally liable on any contract entered into by him in the performance of his functions (except in so far as the contract otherwise provides) and on any contract of employment adopted by him in the performance of those functions, and

b entitled in respect of that liability to indemnity out of the assets.

4 Where at any time the receiver or manager so appointed vacates office—

a his remuneration and any expenses properly incurred by him, and

b any indemnity to which he is entitled out of the assets of the company,

shall be charged on and paid out of any property of the company which is in his custody or under his control at that time in priority to any charge or other security held by the person by or on whose behalf he was appointed.

38 Receivership accounts to be delivered to registrar.¶

1 Except in the case of an adminstrative receiver, every receiver or manager of a company’s property who has been appointed under powers contained in an instrument shall deliver to the registrar of companies for registration the requisite accounts of his receipts and payments.

2 The accounts shall be delivered within one month (or such longer period as the registrar may allow) after the expiration of 12 months from the date of his appointment and of every subsequent period of 6 months, and also within one month after he ceases to act as receiver or manager.

3 The requisite accounts shall be an abstract in the prescribed form showing—

a receipts and payments during the relevant period of 12 or 6 months, or

4 In this section “prescribed” means prescribed by regulations made by statutory instrument by the Secretary of State.

1 Where a receiver or manager of the property of a company has been appointed—

a every invoice, order for goods or services, business letter or order form (whether in hard copy, electronic or any other form) issued by or on behalf of the company or the receiver or manager or the liquidator of the company; and

b all the company's websites,

must contain a statement that a receiver or manager has been appointed.

2 If default is made in complying with this section, the company and any of the following persons, who knowingly and wilfully authorises or permits the default, namely, any officer of the company, any liquidator of the company and any receiver or manager, is liable to a fine.

^C44^C45^C4640 Payment of debts out of assets subject to floating charge.¶

1 The following applies in the case of a company, where a receiver is appointed on behalf of the holders of any debentures of the company secured by a charge which, as created, was a floating charge.

2 If the company is not at the time in course of being wound up, its preferential debts (within the meaning given to that expression by section 386 in Part XII) shall be paid out of the assets coming to the hands of the receiver in priority to any claims for principal or interest in respect of the debentures.

3 Payments made under this section shall be recouped, as far as may be, out of the assets of the company available for payment of general creditors.

41 Enforcement of duty to make returns.¶

1 If a receiver or manager of a company’s property—

^C47a having made default in filing, delivering or making any return, account or other document, or in giving any notice, which a receiver or manager is by law required to file, deliver, make or give, fails to make good the default within 14 days after the service on him of a notice requiring him to do so, or

b having been appointed under powers contained in an instrument, has, after being required at any time by the liquidator of the company to do so, failed to render proper accounts of his receipts and payments and to vouch them and pay over to the liquidator the amount properly payable to him,

the court may, on an application made for the purpose, make an order directing the receiver or manager (as the case may be) to make good the default within such time as may be specified in the order.

^C11722 In the case of the default mentioned in subsection (1)(a), application to the court may be made by any member or creditor of the company or by the registrar of companies; and in the case of the default mentioned in subsection (1)(b), the application shall be made by the liquidator.In either case the court’s order may provide that all costs of and incidental to the application shall be borne by the receiver or manager, as the case may be.

3 Nothing in this section prejudices the operation of any enactment imposing penalties on receivers in respect of any such default as is mentioned in subsection (1).

Administrative receivers: general¶

42 General powers.¶

1 The powers conferred on the administrative receiver of a company by the debentures by virtue of which he was appointed are deemed to include (except in so far as they are inconsistent with any of the provisions of those debentures) the powers specified in Schedule 1 to this Act.

2 In the application of Schedule 1 to the administrative receiver of a company—

a the words “he” and “him” refer to the administrative receiver, and

b references to the property of the company are to the property of which he is or, but for the appointment of some other person as the receiver of part of the company’s property, would be the receiver or manager.

3 A person dealing with the administrative receiver in good faith and for value is not concerned to inquire whether the receiver is acting within his powers.

^C48^C4943 Power to dispose of charged property, etc.¶

1 Where, on an application by the administrative receiver, the court is satisfied that the disposal (with or without other assets) of any relevant property which is subject to a security would be likely to promote a more advantageous realisation of the company’s assets than would otherwise be effected, the court may by order authorise the administrative receiver to dispose of the property as if it were not subject to the security.

2 Subsection (1) does not apply in the case of any security held by the person by or on whose behalf the administrative receiver was appointed, or of any security to which a security so held has priority.

3 It shall be a condition of an order under this section that—

a the net proceeds of the disposal, and

b where those proceeds are less than such amount as may be determined by the court to be the net amount which would be realised on a sale of the property in the open market by a willing vendor, such sums as may be required to make good the deficiency,

shall be applied towards discharging the sums secured by the security.

4 Where a condition imposed in pursuance of subsection (3) relates to two or more securities, that condition shall require the net proceeds of the disposal and, where paragraph (b) of that subsection applies, the sums mentioned in that paragraph to be applied towards discharging the sums secured by those securities in the order of their priorities.

5 A copy of an order under this section shall, within 14 days of the making of the order, be sent by the administrative receiver to the registrar of companies.

6 If the administrative receiver without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (5), he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

7 In this section “relevant property”, in relation to the administrative receiver, means the property of which he is or, but for the appointment of some other person as the receiver of part of the company’s property, would be the receiver or manager.

44 Agency and liability for contracts.¶

1 The administrative receiver of a company—

a is deemed to be the company’s agent, unless and until the company goes into liquidation;

b is personally liable on any contract entered into by him in the carrying out of his functions (except in so far as the contract otherwise provides) and , to the extent of any qualifying liability,on any contract of employment adopted by him in the carrying out of those functions; and

c is entitled in respect of that liability to an indemnity out of the assets of the company.

2 For the purposes of subsection (1)(b) the administrative receiver is not to be taken to have adopted a contract of employment by reason of anything done or omitted to be done within 14 days after his appointment.

2A For the purposes of subsection (1)(b), a liability under a contract of employment is a qualifying liability if—

a it is a liability to pay a sum by way of wages or salary or contribution to an occupational pension scheme,

b it is incurred while the administrative receiver is in office, and

c it is in respect of services rendered wholly or partly after the adoption of the contract.

2B Where a sum payable in respect of a liability which is a qualifying liability for the purposes of subsection (1)(b) is payable in respect of services rendered partly before and partly after the adoption of the contract, liability under subsection (1)(b) shall only extend to so much of the sum as is payable in respect of services rendered after the adoption of the contract.

2C For the purposes of subsections (2A) and (2B)—

b a sum payable in lieu of holiday is deemed to be wages or (as the case may be) salary in respect of services rendered in the period by reference to which the holiday entitlement arose.

^F8162D . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3 This section does not limit any right to indemnity which the administrative receiver would have apart from it, nor limit his liability on contracts entered into or adopted without authority, nor confer any right to indemnity in respect of that liability.

45 Vacation of office.¶

1 An administrative receiver of a company may at any time be removed from office by order of the court (but not otherwise) and may resign his office by giving notice of his resignation in the prescribed manner to such persons as may be prescribed.

2 An administrative receiver shall vacate office if he ceases to be qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to the company.

3 Where at any time an administrative receiver vacates office—

a his remuneration and any expenses properly incurred by him, and

b any indemnity to which he is entitled out of the assets of the company,

shall be charged on and paid out of any property of the company which is in his custody or under his control at that time in priority to any security held by the person by or on whose behalf he was appointed.

4 Where an administrative receiver vacates office otherwise than by death, he shall, within 14 days after his vacation of office, send a notice to that effect to the registrar of companies.

5 If an administrative receiver without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (4), he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

a forthwith send to the company and publish in the prescribed manner a notice of his appointment, and

b within 28 days after his appointment, unless the court otherwise directs, send such a notice to all the creditors of the company (so far as he is aware of their addresses).

2 This section and the next do not apply in relation to the appointment of an administrative receiver to act—

a with an existing administrative receiver, or

3 If the company is being wound up, this section and the next apply notwithstanding that the administrative receiver and the liquidator are the same person, but with any necessary modifications arising from that fact.

4 If the administrative receiver without reasonable excuse fails to comply with this section, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

5 The administrative receiver, if he thinks fit, may—

a at any time release a person from an obligation imposed on him under subsection (1) or (2), or

b either when giving notice under subsection (4) or subsequently, extend the period so mentioned;

and where the administrative receiver has refused to exercise a power conferred by this subsection, the court, if it thinks fit, may exercise it.

6 If a person without reasonable excuse fails to comply with any obligation imposed under this section, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

48 Report by administrative receiver.¶

^C501 Where an administrative receiver is appointed, he shall, within 3 months (or such longer period as the court may allow) after his appointment, send to the registrar of companies, to any trustees for secured creditors of the company and (so far as he is aware of their addresses) to all such creditors , other than opted-out creditors, a report as to the following matters, namely—

a send a copy of the report (so far as he is aware of their addresses) to all unsecured creditors of the company , other than opted-out creditors, or

b publish in the prescribed manner a notice stating an address to which unsecured creditors of the company should write for copies of the report to be sent to them free of charge,

^F1352. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^F13543 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4 Where the company has gone or goes into liquidation, the administrative receiver—

a shall, within 7 days after his compliance with subsection (1) or, if later, the nomination or appointment of the liquidator, send a copy of the report to the liquidator, and

b where he does so within the time limited for compliance with subsection (2), is not required to comply with that subsection.

5 A report under this section shall include a summary of the statement of affairs made out and submitted to the administrative receiver under section 47 and of his comments (if any) upon it.

7 Section 46(2) applies for the purposes of this section also.

8 If the administrative receiver without reasonable excuse fails to comply with this section, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

Chapter II Receivers (Scotland)¶

^C53^C145650 Extent of this Chapter.¶

This Chapter extends to Scotland only.

^C54^C145651 Power to appoint receiver.¶

1 It is competent under the law of Scotland for the holder of a floating charge over all or any part of the property (including uncalled capital), which may from time to time be comprised in the property and undertaking of an incorporated company (whether a company registered under the Companies Act 2006 or not)

a which the Court of Session has jurisdiction to wind up; or

b where paragraph (a) does not apply, in respect of which a court of a member state ^F1529... has under the EU Regulation jurisdiction to open insolvency proceedings,

to appoint a receiver of such part of the property of the company as is subject to the charge.

2 It is competent under the law of Scotland for the court, on the application of the holder of such a floating charge, to appoint a receiver of such part of the property of the company as is subject to the charge.

^F9322ZA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2A Subsections (1) and (2) are subject to section 72A.

3 The following are disqualified from being appointed as receiver—

a a body corporate;

b an undischarged bankrupt; and

c a firm according to the law of Scotland.

4 A body corporate or a firm according to the law of Scotland which acts as a receiver is liable to a fine.

5 An undischarged bankrupt or a person subject to a bankruptcy restrictions order who so acts is liable to imprisonment or a fine, or both.

6 In this section, “receiver” includes joint receivers ; and

“bankruptcy restrictions order” means—
1. a bankruptcy restrictions order made under section 155 of the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 2016;
2. ^F787...
3. a bankruptcy restrictions order made under paragraph 1 of Schedule 4A to this Act; or
4. a bankruptcy restrictions undertaking entered into under paragraph 7 of that Schedule.
“the EU Regulation” is Regulation (EU) 2015/848 of the European Parliament and of the Council on insolvency proceedings as that Regulation has effect in the law of the European Union;
“court” is to be construed in accordance with Article 2(6) of the EU Regulation;
“insolvency proceedings” is to be construed in accordance with Article 2(4) of the EU Regulation.

^C55^C145652 Circumstances justifying appointment.¶

1 A receiver may be appointed under section 51(1) by the holder of the floating charge on the occurrence of any event which, by the provisions of the instrument creating the charge, entitles the holder of the charge to make that appointment and, in so far as not otherwise provided for by the instrument, on the occurrence of any of the following events, namely—

a the expiry of a period of 21 days after the making of a demand for payment of the whole or any part of the principal sum secured by the charge, without payment having been made;

b the expiry of a period of 2 months during the whole of which interest due and payable under the charge has been in arrears;

c the making of an order or the passing of a resolution to wind up the company;

d the appointment of a receiver by virtue of any other floating charge created by the company.

2 A receiver may be appointed by the court under section 51(2) on the occurrence of any event which, by the provisions of the instrument creating the floating charge, entitles the holder of the charge to make that appointment and, in so far as not otherwise provided for by the instrument, on the occurrence of any of the following events, namely—

a where the court, on the application of the holder of the charge, pronounces itself satisfied that the position of the holder of the charge is likely to be prejudiced if no such appointment is made;

b any of the events referred to in paragraphs (a) to (c) of subsection (1).

^C150153 Mode of appointment by holder of charge.¶

^C1015^C561 The appointment of a receiver by the holder of the floating charge under section 51(1) shall be by means of an instrument subscribed in accordance with the Requirements of Writing (Scotland) Act 1995 (“the instrument of appointment”), a copy (certified in the prescribed manner to be a correct copy) whereof shall be delivered by or on behalf of the person making the appointment to the registrar of companies for registration within 7 days of its execution and shall be accompanied by a notice in the prescribed form.

^C562 If any person without reasonable excuse makes default in complying with the requirements of subsection (1), he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

^F593 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C564 If the receiver is to be appointed by the holders of a series of secured debentures, the instrument of appointment may be executed on behalf of the holders of the floating charge by any person authorised by resolution of the debenture-holders to execute the instrument.

5 On receipt of the certified copy of the instrument of appointment in accordance with subsection (1), the registrar shall, on payment of the prescribed fee, enter the particulars of the appointment in the register.

^C57^C566 The appointment of a person as a receiver by an instrument of appointment in accordance with subsection (1)—

a is of no effect unless it is accepted by that person before the end of the business day next following that on which the instrument of appointment is received by him or on his behalf, and

b subject to paragraph (a), is deemed to be made on the day on and at the time at which the instrument of appointment is so received, as evidenced by a written docquet by that person or on his behalf;

and this subsection applies to the appointment of joint receivers subject to such modifications as may be prescribed.

^C567 On the appointment of a receiver under this section, the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed attaches to the property then subject to the charge; and such attachment has effect as if the charge was a fixed security over the property to which it has attached.

^C150254 Appointment by court.¶

^C581 Application for the appointment of a receiver by the court under section 51(2) shall be by petition to the court, which shall be served on the company.

^C582 On such an application, the court shall, if it thinks fit, issue an interlocutor making the appointment of the receiver.

^C1016^C583 A copy (certified by the clerk of the court to be a correct copy) of the court’s interlocutor making the appointment shall be delivered by or on behalf of the petitioner to the registrar of companies for registration, accompanied by a notice in the prescribed form, within 7 days of the date of the interlocutor or much longer period as the court may allow.If any person without reasonable excuse makes default in complying with the requirements of this subsection, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

4 On receipt of the certified copy interlocutor in accordance with subsection (3), the registrar shall, on payment of the prescribed fee, enter the particulars of the appointment in the register.

^C585 The receiver is to be regarded as having been appointed on the date of his being appointed by the court.

^C586 On the appointment of a receiver under this section, the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed attaches to the property then subject to the charge; and such attachment has effect as if the charge were a fixed security over the property to which it has attached.

^C587 In making rules of court for the purposes of this section, the Court of Session shall have regard to the need for special provision for cases which appear to the court to require to be dealt with as a matter of urgency.

^C59^C145755 Powers of receiver.¶

1 Subject to the next subsection, a receiver has in relation to such part of the property of the company as is attached by the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed, the powers, if any, given to him by the instrument creating that charge.

2 In addition, the receiver has under this Chapter the powers as respects that property (in so far as these are not inconsistent with any provision contained in that instrument) which are specified in Schedule 2 to this Act.

3 Subsections (1) and (2) apply—

a subject to the rights of any person who has effectually executed diligence on all or any part of the property of the company prior to the appointment of the receiver, and

b subject to the rights of any person who holds over all or any part of the property of the company a fixed security or floating charge having priority, over, or ranking pari passu with, the floating charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed.

4 A person dealing with a receiver in good faith and for value is not concerned to enquire whether the receiver is acting within his powers.

^C60^C145756 Precedence among receivers.¶

1 Where there are two or more floating charges subsisting over all or any part of the property of the company, a receiver may be appointed under this Chapter by virtue of each such charge; but a receiver appointed by, or on the application of, the holder of a floating charge having priority of ranking over any other floating charge by virtue of which a receiver has been appointed has the powers given to a receiver by section 55 and Schedule 2 to the exclusion of any other receiver.

2 Where two or more floating charges rank with one another equally, and two or more receivers have been appointed by virtue of such charges, the receivers so appointed are deemed to have been appointed as joint receivers.

3 Receivers appointed, or deemed to have been appointed, as joint receivers shall act jointly unless the instrument of appointment or respective instruments of appointment otherwise provide.

4 Subject to subsection (5) below, the powers of a receiver appointed by, or on the application of, the holder of a floating charge are suspended by, and as from the date of, the appointment of a receiver by, or on the application of, the holder of a floating charge having priority of ranking over that charge to such extent as may be necessary to enable the receiver second mentioned to exercise his powers under section 55 and Schedule 2; and any powers so suspended take effect again when the floating charge having priority of ranking ceases to attach to the property then subject to the charge, whether such cessation is by virtue of section 62(6) or otherwise.

5 The suspension of the powers of a receiver under subsection (4) does not have the effect of requiring him to release any part of the property (including any letters or documents) of the company from his control until he receives from the receiver superseding him a valid indemnity (subject to the limit of the value of such part of the property of the company as is subject to the charge by virtue of which he was appointed) in respect of any expenses, charges and liabilities he may have incurred in the performance of his functions as receiver.

6 The suspension of the powers of a receiver under subsection (4) does not cause the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed to cease to attach to the property to which it attached by virtue of section 53(7) or 54(6).

7 Nothing in this section prevents the same receiver being appointed by virtue of two or more floating charges.

^C61^C145757 Agency and liability of receiver for contracts.¶

1 A receiver is deemed to be the agent of the company in relation to such property of the company as is attached by the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed.

1A Without prejudice to subsection (1), a receiver is deemed to be the agent of the company in relation to any contract of employment adopted by him in the carrying out of his functions.

2 A receiver (including a receiver whose powers are subsequently suspended under section 56) is personally liable on any contract entered into by him in the performance of his functions, except in so far as the contract otherwise provides, and , to the extent of any qualifying liability,on any contract of employment adopted by him in the carrying out of those functions.

2A For the purposes of subsection (2), a liability under a contract of employment is a qualifying liability if—

a it is a liability to pay a sum by way of wages or salary or contribution to an occupational pension scheme,

b it is incurred while the receiver is in office, and

c it is in respect of services rendered wholly or partly after the adoption of the contract.

2B Where a sum payable in respect of a liability which is a qualifying liability for the purposes of subsection (2) is payable in respect of services rendered partly before and partly after the adoption of the contract, liability under that subsection shall only extend to so much of the sum as is payable in respect of services rendered after the adoption of the contract.

2C For the purposes of subsections (2A) and (2B)—

b a sum payable in lieu of holiday is deemed to be wages or (as the case may be) salary in respect of services rendered in the period by reference to which the holiday entitlement arose.

^F9332D . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3 A receiver who is personally liable by virtue of subsection (2) is entitled to be indemnified out of the property in respect of which he was appointed.

4 Any contract entered into by or on behalf of the company prior to the appointment of a receiver continues in force (subject to its terms) notwithstanding that appointment, but the receiver does not by virtue only of his appointment incur any personal liability on any such contract.

5 For the purposes of subsection (2), a receiver is not to be taken to have adopted a contract of employment by reason of anything done or omitted to be done within 14 days after his appointment.

6 This section does not limit any right to indemnity which the receiver would have apart from it, nor limit his liability on contracts entered into or adopted without authority, nor confer any right to indemnity in respect of that liability.

7 Any contract entered into by a receiver in the performance of his functions continues in force (subject to its terms) although the powers of the receiver are subsequently suspended under section 56.

^C62^C145758 Remuneration of receiver.¶

1 The remuneration to be paid to a receiver is to be determined by agreement between the receiver and the holder of the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed.

2 Where the remuneration to be paid to the receiver has not been determined under subsection (1), or where it has been so determined but is disputed by any of the persons mentioned in paragraphs (a) to (d) below, it may be fixed instead by the Auditor of the Court of Session on application made to him by—

a the receiver;

b the holder of any floating charge or fixed security over all or any part of the property of the company;

c the company; or

d the liquidator of the company.

3 Where the receiver has been paid or has retained for his remuneration for any period before the remuneration has been fixed by the Auditor of the Court of Session under subsection (2) any amount in excess of the remuneration so fixed for that period, the receiver or his personal representatives shall account for the excess.

^C63^C6459 Priority of debts.¶

1 Where a receiver is appointed and the company is not at the time of the appointment in course of being wound up, the debts which fall under subsection (2) of this section shall be paid out of any assets coming to the hands of the receiver in priority to any claim for principal or interest by the holder of the floating charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed.

2 Debts falling under this subsection are preferential debts (within the meaning given by section 386 in Part XII) which, by the end of a period of 6 months after advertisement by the receiver for claims in the Edinburgh Gazette and in a newspaper circulating in the district where the company carries on business either—

i have been intimated to him, or

ii have become known to him.

3 Any payments made under this section shall be recouped as far as may be out of the assets of the company available for payment of ordinary creditors.

^C148460 Distribution of moneys.¶

1 Subject to the next section, and to the rights of any of the following categories of persons (which rights shall, except to the extent otherwise provided in any instrument, have the following order of priority), namely—

a the holder of any fixed security which is over property subject to the floating charge and which ranks prior to, or pari passu with, the floating charge;

b all persons who have effectually executed diligence on any part of the property of the company which is subject to the charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed;

c creditors in respect of all liabilities, charges and expenses incurred by or on behalf of the receiver;

d the receiver in respect of his liabilities, expenses and remuneration, and any indemnity to which he is entitled out of the property of the company; and

^C65^C66e the preferential creditors entitled to payment under section 59,

the receiver shall pay moneys received by him to the holder of the floating charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed in or towards satisfaction of the debt secured by the floating charge.

^C672 Any balance of moneys remaining after the provisions of subsection (1) and section 61 below have been satisfied shall be paid in accordance with their respective rights and interests to the following persons, as the case may require—

a any other receiver;

b the holder of a fixed security which is over property subject to the floating charge;

c the company or its liquidator, as the case may be.

^C673 Where any question arises as to the person entitled to a payment under this section, or where a receipt or a discharge of a security cannot be obtained in respect of any such payment, the receiver shall consign the amount of such payment in any joint stock bank of issue in Scotland in name of the Accountant of Court for behoof of the person or persons entitled thereto.

^C68^C69^C70^C148361 Disposal of interest in property.¶

1 Where the receiver sells or disposes, or is desirous of selling or disposing, or any property or interest in property of the company which is subject to the floating charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed and which is—

a subject to any security or interest of, or burden or encumbrance in favour of, a creditor the ranking of which is prior to, or pari passu with, or postponed to the floating charge, or

b property or an interest in property affected or attached by effectual diligence executed by any person,

and the receiver is unable to obtain the consent of such creditor or, as the case may be, such person to such a sale or disposal, the receiver may apply to the court for authority to sell or dispose of the property or interest in property free of such security, interest, burden, encumbrance or diligence.

1A For the purposes of subsection (1) above, an inhibition which takes effect after the creation of the floating charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed is not an effectual diligence.

2 Subject to the next subsection, on such an application the court may, if it thinks fit, authorise the sale or disposal of the property or interest in question free of such security, interest, burden, encumbrance or diligence, and such authorisation may be on such terms or conditions as the court thinks fit.

3 In the case of an application where a fixed security over the property or interest in question which ranks prior to the floating charge has not been met or provided for in full, the court shall not authorise the sale or disposal of the property or interest in question unless it is satisfied that the sale or disposal would be like to provide a more advantageous realisation of the company’s assets than would otherwise be effected.

4 It shall be a condition of an authorisation to which subsection (3) applies that—

a the net proceeds of the disposal, and

b where those proceeds are less than such amount as may be determined by the court to be the net amount which would be realised on a sale of the property or interest in the open market by a willing seller, such sums as may be required to make good the deficiency,

shall be applied towards discharging the sums secured by the fixed security.

5 Where a condition imposed in pursuance of subsection (4) relates to two or more such fixed securities, that condition shall require the net proceeds of the disposal and, where paragraph (b) of that subsection applies, the sums mentioned in that paragraph to be applied towards discharging the sums secured by those fixed securities in the order of their priorities.

^C10176 A copy of an authorisation under subsection (2) ^F66. . . shall, within 14 days of the granting of the authorisation, be sent by the receiver to the registrar of companies.

7 If the receiver without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsection (6), he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

8 Where any sale or disposal is effected in accordance with the authorisation of the court under subsection (2), the receiver shall grant to the purchaser or disponee an appropriate document of transfer or conveyance of the property or interest in question, and that document has the effect, or, where recording, intimation or registration of that document is a legal requirement for completion of title to the property or interest, then that recording, intimation or registration (as the case may be) has the effect, of—

a disencumbering the property or interest of the security, interest, burden or encumbrance affecting it, and

b freeing the property or interest from the diligence executed upon it.

9 Nothing in this section prejudices the right of any creditor of the company to rank for his debt in the winding up of the company.

^C71^C148262 Cessation of appointment of receiver.¶

1 A receiver may be removed from office by the court under subsection (3) below and may resign his office by giving notice of his resignation in the prescribed manner to such persons as may be prescribed.

2 A receiver shall vacate office if he ceases to be qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to the company.

3 Subject to the next subsection, a receiver may, on application to the court by the holder of the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed, be removed by the court on cause shown.

4 Where at any time a receiver vacates office—

a his remuneration and any expenses properly incurred by him, and

b any indemnity to which he is entitled out of the property of the company,

shall be paid out of the property of the company which is subject to the floating charge and shall have priority as provided for in section 60(1).

^C10185 When a receiver ceases to act as such otherwise than by death he shall, and, when a receiver is removed by the court, the holder of the floating charge by virtue of which he was appointed shall, within 14 days of the cessation or removal (as the case may be) given the registrar of companies notice to that effect, and the registrar shall enter the notice in the register.If the receiver or the holder of the floating charge (as the case may require) makes default in complying with the requirements of this subsection, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

6 If by the expiry of a period of one month following upon the removal of the receiver or his ceasing to act as such no other receiver has been appointed, the floating charge by virtue of which the receiver was appointed—

a thereupon ceases to attach to the property then subject to the charge, and

b again subsists as a floating charge;

and for the purposes of calculating the period of one month under this subsection no account shall be taken of any period during which the company is in administration, under Part II of this Act ^F68. . . .

^C72^C73^C145863 Powers of court.¶

1 The court on the application of—

a the holder of a floating charge by virtue of which a receiver was appointed, or

b a receiver appointed under section 51,

may give directions to the receiver in respect of any matter arising in connection with the performance by him of his functions.

2 Where the appointment of a person as a receiver by the holder of a floating charge is discovered to be invalid (whether by virtue of the invalidity of the instrument or otherwise), the court may order the holder of the floating charge to indemnify the person appointed against any liability which arises solely by reason of the invalidity of the appointment.

2 This section and the next do not apply in relation to the appointment of a receiver to act—

a with an existing receiver, or

b in place of a receiver who has died or ceased to act,

except that, where they apply to a receiver who dies or ceases to act before they have been fully complied with, the references in this section and the next to the receiver include (subject to subsection (3) of this section) his successor and any continuing receiver.

3 If the company is being wound up, this section and the next apply notwithstanding that the receiver and the liquidator are the same person, but with any necessary modifications arising from that fact.

4 If a person without reasonable excuse fails to comply with this section, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

^C76^C145866 Company’s statement of affairs.¶

^C80^C150469 Enforcement of receiver’s duty to make returns, etc.¶

1 If any receiver—

^C81a having made default in filing, delivering or making any return, account or other document, or in giving any notice, which a receiver is by law required to file, deliver, make or give, fails to make good the default within 14 days after the service on him of a notice requiring him to do so; or

^C1173^C1213^C1305Chapter I Preliminary¶

Introductory¶

73 Scheme of this Part¶

1 This Part applies to the winding up of a company registered under the Companies Act 2006 in England and Wales or Scotland.

2 The winding up may be either—

a voluntary (see Chapters 2 to 5), or

b by the court (see Chapter 6).

3 This Chapter and Chapters 7 to 10 relate to winding up generally, except where otherwise stated.

Contributories¶

^C1305^C130674 ^C1213^C1305 Liability as contributories of present and past members.¶

1 When a company is wound up, every present and past member is liable to contribute to its assets to any amount sufficient for payment of its debts and liabilities, and the expenses of the winding up, and for the adjustment of the rights of the contributories among themselves.

2 This is subject as follows—

^C1209a a past member is not liable to contribute if he has ceased to be a member for one year or more before the commencement of the winding up;

b a past member is not liable to contribute in respect of any debt or liability of the company contracted after he ceased to be a member;

c a past member is not liable to contribute, unless it appears to the court that the existing members are unable to satisfy the contributions required to be made by them ^F81. . . ;

d in the case of a company limited by shares, no contribution is required from any member exceeding the amount (if any) unpaid on the shares in respect of which he is liable as a present or past member;

e nothing in the Companies Acts or this Act invalidates any provision contained in a policy of insurance or other contract whereby the liability of individual members on the policy or contract is restricted, or whereby the funds of the company are alone made liable in respect of the policy or contract;

f a sum due to any member of the company (in his character of a member) by way of dividends, profits or otherwise is not deemed to be a debt of the company, payable to that member in a case of competition between himself and any other creditor not a member of the company, but any such sum may be taken into account for the purpose of the final adjustment of the rights of the contributories among themselves.

3 In the case of a company limited by guarantee, no contribution is required from any member exceeding the amount undertaken to be contributed by him to the company’s assets in the event of its being wound up; but if it is a company with a share capital, every member of it is liable (in addition to the amount so undertaken to be contributed to the assets), to contribute to the extent of any sums unpaid on shares held by him.

75 ^C1305 Directors, etc. with unlimited liability.¶

^F83. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C1305^C130076 ^C1305 Liability of past directors and shareholders.¶

1 This section applies where a company is being wound up and—

a it has under Chapter 5 of Part 18 of the Companies Act 2006 (acquisition by limited company of its own shares: redemption or purchase by private company out of capital) made a payment out of capital in respect of the redemption or purchase of any of its own shares (the payment being referred to below as “the relevant payment”), and

b the aggregate amount of the company’s assets and the amounts paid by way of contribution to its assets (apart from this section) is not sufficient for payment of its debts and liabilities, and the expenses of the winding up.

2 If the winding up commenced within one year of the date on which the relevant payment was made, then—

a the person from whom the shares were redeemed or purchased, and

b the directors who signed the statement made in accordance with section 714(1) to (3) of the Companies Act 2006 for purposes of the redemption or purchase (except a director who shows that he had reasonable grounds for forming the opinion set out in the statement,

are, so as to enable that insufficiency to be met, liable to contribute to the following extent to the company’s assets.

3 A person from whom any of the shares were redeemed or purchased is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding so much of the relevant payment as was made by the company in respect of his shares; and the directors are jointly and severally liable with that person to contribute that amount.

4 A person who has contributed any amount to the assets in pursuance of this section may apply to the court for an order directing any other person jointly and severally liable in respect of that amount to pay him such amount as the court thinks just and equitable.

5 Section 74 does not apply in relation to liability accruing by virtue of this section.

6 ^F88. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C1305^C130077 ^C1305 Limited company formerly unlimited.¶

1 This section applies in the case of a company being wound up which was at some former time registered as unlimited but has re-registered as a limited company.

2 Notwithstanding section 74(2)(a) above, a past member of the company who was a member of it at the time of re-registration, if the winding up commences within the period of 3 years beginning with the day on which the company was re-registered, is liable to contribute to the assets of the company in respect of debts and liabilities contracted before that time.

3 If no persons who were members of the company at that time are existing members of it, a person who at that time was a present or past member is liable to contribute as above notwithstanding that the existing members have satisfied the contributions required to be made by them ^F90. . . This applies subject to section 74(2)(a) above and to subsection (2) of this section, but notwithstanding section 74(2)(c).

4 Notwithstanding section 74(2)(d) and (3), there is no limit on the amount which a person who, at that time, was a past or present member of the company is liable to contribute as above.

^C1305^C130078 ^C1305 Unlimited company formerly limited.¶

1 This section applies in the case of a company being wound up which was at some former time registered as limited but has been re-registered as unlimited ^F91. . . .

2 A person who, at the time when the application for the company to be re-registered was lodged, was a past member of the company and did not after that again become a member of it is not liable to contribute to the assets of the company more than he would have been liable to contribute had the company not been re-registered.

^C1305^C130079 ^C1305 Meaning of “contributory”.¶

1 In this Act ^F92. . . the expression “contributory” means every person liable to contribute to the assets of a company in the event of its being wound up, and for the purposes of all proceedings for determining, and all proceedings prior to the final determination of, the persons who are to be deemed contributories, includes any person alleged to be a contributory.

2 The reference in subsection (1) to persons liable to contribute to the assets does not include a person so liable by virtue of a declaration by the court under section 213 (imputed responsibility for company’s fraudulent trading) or section 214 (wrongful trading) in Chapter X of this Part.

3 A reference in a company’s articles to a contributory does not (unless the context requires) include a person who is a contributory only by virtue of section 76.^F93. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C1305^C130180 ^C1305 Nature of contributory’s liability.¶

The liability of a contributory creates a debt (in England and Wales in the nature of an ordinary contract debt) accruing due from him at the time when his liability commenced, but payable at the times when calls are made for enforcing the liability.

^C1305^C130181 ^C1305 Contributories in case of death of a member.¶

1 If a contributory dies either before or after he has been placed on the list of contributories, his personal representatives, and the heirs and legatees of heritage of his heritable estate in Scotland, are liable in a due course of administration to contribute to the assets of the company in discharge of his liability and are contributories accordingly.

2 Where the personal representatives are placed on the list of contributories, the heirs or legatees of heritage need not be added, but they may be added as and when the court thinks fit.

3 If in England and Wales the personal representatives make default in paying any money ordered to be paid by them, proceedings may be taken for administering the estate of the deceased contributory and for compelling payment out of it of the money due.

^C1305^C130182 ^C1305 Effect of contributory’s bankruptcy.¶

1 The following applies if a contributory becomes bankrupt, either before or after he has been placed on the list of contributories.

2 His trustee in bankruptcy represents him for all purposes of the winding up, and is a contributory accordingly.

3 The trustee may be called on to admit to proof against the bankrupt’s estate, or otherwise allow to be paid out of the bankrupt’s assets in due course of law, any money due from the bankrupt in respect of his liability to contribute to the company’s assets.

4 There may be proved against the bankrupt’s estate the estimated value of his liability to future calls as well as calls already made.

^C1307^C130583 ^C1305Companies registered but not formed under the Companies Act 2006¶

1 The following applies in the event of a company being wound up which is registered but not formed under the Companies Act 2006..

2 Every person is a contributory, in respect of the company’s debts and liabilities contracted before registration, who is liable—

a to pay, or contribute to the payment of, any debt or liability so contracted, or

b to pay, or contribute to the payment of, any sum for the adjustment of the rights of the members among themselves in respect of any such debt or liability, or

c to pay, or contribute to the amount of, the expenses of winding up the company, so far as relates to the debts or liabilities above mentioned.

3 Every contributory is liable to contribute to the assets of the company, in the course of the winding up, all sums due from him in respect of any such liability.

4 In the event of the death, bankruptcy or insolvency of any contributory, provisions of this Act, with respect to the personal representatives, to the heirs and legatees of heritage of the heritable estate in Scotland of deceased contributories and to the trustees of bankrupt or insolvent contributories respectively, apply.

Chapter II Voluntary Winding Up (Introductory and General)¶

Resolutions for, and commencement of, voluntary winding up¶

^C88^C116884 Circumstances in which company may be wound up voluntarily.¶

1 A company may be wound up voluntarily—

a when the period (if any) fixed for the duration of the company by the articles expires, or the event (if any) occurs, on the occurrence of which the articles provide that the company is to be dissolved, and the company in general meeting has passed a resolution requiring it be wound up voluntarily;

b if the company resolves by special resolution that it be wound up voluntarily;

c ^F97. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2 In this Act the expression “a resolution for voluntary winding up” means a resolution passed under either of the paragraphs of subsection (1).

2A Before a company passes a resolution for voluntary winding up it must give written notice of the resolution to the holder of any qualifying floating charge to which section 72A applies.

2B Where notice is given under subsection (2A) a resolution for voluntary winding up may be passed only—

a after the end of the period of five business days beginning with the day on which the notice was given, or

b if the person to whom the notice was given has consented in writing to the passing of the resolution.

^C1021^C14733 Chapter 3 of Part 3 of the Companies Act 2006 (resolutions affecting a company's constitution) applies to a resolution under paragraph (a) of subsection (1) as well as a special resolution under paragraph (b).

4 This section has effect subject to section 43 of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002.

^C117485 Notice of resolution to wind up.¶

1 When a company has passed a resolution for voluntary winding up, it shall, within 14 days after the passing of the resolution, give notice of the resolution by advertisement in the Gazette.

2 If default is made in complying with this section, the company and every officer of it who is in default is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.For purposes of this subsection the liquidator is deemed an officer of the company.

86 Commencement of winding up.¶

A voluntary winding up is deemed to commence at the time of the passing of the resolution for voluntary winding up.

Consequences of resolution to wind up¶

87 ¶

1 In case of a voluntary winding up, the company shall from the commencement of the winding up cease to carry on its business, except so far as may be required for its beneficial winding up.

2 However, the corporate state and corporate powers of the company, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in its articles, continue until the company is dissolved.

^C89^C90^C117588 Avoidance of share transfers, etc. after winding-up resolution.¶

Any transfer of shares, not being a transfer made to or with the sanction of the liquidator, and any alteration in the status of the company’s members, made after the commencement of a voluntary winding up, is void.

Declaration of solvency¶

89 Statutory declaration of solvency.¶

1 Where it is proposed to wind up a company voluntarily, the directors (or, in the case of a company having more than two directors, the majority of them) may at a directors’ meeting make a statutory declaration to the effect that they have made a full inquiry into the company’s affairs and that, having done so, they have formed the opinion that the company will be able to pay its debts in full, together with interest at the official rate (as defined in section 251), within such period, not exceeding 12 months from the commencement of the winding up, as may be specified in the declaration.

2 Such a declaration by the directors has no effect for purposes of this Act unless—

a it is made within the 5 weeks immediately preceding the date of the passing of the resolution for winding up, or on that date but before the passing of the resolution, and

b it embodies a statement of the company’s assets and liabilities as at the latest practicable date before the making of the declaration.

^C10223 A copy of the declaration shall be delivered to the registrar of companies before the expiration of 15 days immediately following the date on which the resolution for winding up is passed.

4 A director making a declaration under this section without having reasonable grounds for the opinion that the company will be able to pay its debts in full, together with interest at the official rate, within the period specified is liable to imprisonment or a fine, or both.

5 If the company is wound up in pursuance of a resolution passed within 5 weeks after the making of the declaration, and its debts (together with interest at the official rate) are not paid or provided for in full within the period specified, it is to be presumed (unless the contrary is shown) that the director did not have reasonable grounds for his opinion.

6 If a copy of a declaration required by subsection (3) to be delivered to the registrar is not so delivered within the time prescribed by that subsection, the company and every officer in default is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

90 Distinction between “members’” and “creditors’” voluntary winding up.¶

A winding up in the case of which a directors’ statutory declaration under section 89 has been made is a “members’ voluntary winding up”; and a winding up in the case of which such a declaration has not been made is a “creditors’ voluntary winding up”.

^C1075Chapter III Members’ Voluntary Winding Up¶

^C91^C145991 Appointment of liquidator.¶

1 In a members’ voluntary winding up, the company in general meeting shall appoint one or more liquidators for the purpose of winding up the company’s affairs and distributing its assets.

2 On the appointment of a liquidator all the powers of the directors cease, except so far as the company in general meeting or the liquidator sanctions their continuance.

^C92^C145992 Power to fill vacancy in office of liquidator.¶

1 If a vacancy occurs by death resignation or otherwise in the office of liquidator appointed by the company, the company in general meeting may, subject to any arrangement with its creditors, fill the vacancy.

2 For that purpose a general meeting may be convened by any contributory or, if there were more liquidators than one, by the continuing liquidators.

3 The meeting shall be held in manner provided by this Act or by the articles, or in such manner as may, on application by any contributory or by the continuing liquidators, be determined by the court.

^C145992A Progress report to company ^F915...¶

1 Subject to section 96, ^F927... the liquidator must—

a for each prescribed period produce a progress report relating to the prescribed matters; and

i the members of the company; and

ii such other persons as may be prescribed.

2 A liquidator who fails to comply with this section is liable to a fine.

2 The liquidator must send a copy of the account to the members of the company before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day on which the account is made up.

3 The liquidator must send a copy of the account to the registrar of companies before the end of that period (but not before sending it to the members of the company).

4 If the liquidator does not comply with subsection (2) the liquidator is liable to a fine.

^C93^C148695 Effect of company’s insolvency.¶

8 If the liquidator without reasonable excuse fails to comply with subsections (1) to (4A), he is liable to a fine.

96 Conversion to creditors’ voluntary winding up.¶

1 The winding up becomes a creditors' voluntary winding up as from the day on which—

a the company's creditors under section 95 nominate a person to be liquidator, or

b the procedure by which the company's creditors were to have made such a nomination concludes without a nomination having been made.

2 As from that day this Act has effect as if the directors' declaration under section 89 had not been made.

3 The liquidator in the creditors' voluntary winding up is to be the person nominated by the company's creditors under section 95 or, where no person has been so nominated, the existing liquidator.

4 In the case of the creditors nominating a person other than the existing liquidator any director, member or creditor of the company may, within 7 days after the date on which the nomination was made by the creditors, apply to the court for an order either—

a directing that the existing liquidator is to be liquidator instead of or jointly with the person nominated by the creditors, or

b appointing some other person to be liquidator instead of the person nominated by the creditors.

4A The court shall grant an application under subsection (4) made by the holder of a qualifying floating charge in respect of the company's property (within the meaning of paragraph 14 of Schedule B1) unless the court thinks it right to refuse the application because of the particular circumstances of the case.

5 The “existing liquidator” is the person who is liquidator immediately before the winding up becomes a creditors' voluntary winding up.

b appointing some other person to be liquidator instead of the person nominated by the creditors.

^C97^C1460101 Appointment of liquidation committee.¶

1 The creditors may in accordance with the rules appoint a committee (“the liquidation committee”) of not more than 5 persons to exercise the functions conferred on it by or under this Act.

3 However, the creditors may, if they think fit, decide that all or any of the persons so appointed by the company ought not to be members of the liquidation committee; and if the creditors so decide—

a those persons are not then, unless the court otherwise directs, qualified to act as members of the committee; and

b on any application to the court under this provision the court may, if it thinks fit, appoint other persons to act as such members in place of those persons.

Chapter V Provisions Applying to both kinds of Voluntary Winding Up¶

^C102^C1179107 Distribution of company’s property.¶

Subject to the provisions of this Act as to preferential payments, the company’s property in a voluntary winding up shall on the winding up be applied in satisfaction of the company’s liabilities pari passu and, subject to that application, shall (unless the articles otherwise provide) be distributed among the members according to their rights and interests in the company.

108 Appointment or removal of liquidator by the court.¶

1 If from any cause whatever there is not liquidator acting, the court may appoint a liquidator.

2 The court may, on cause shown, remove a liquidator and appoint another.

^C103^C1461109 Notice by liquidator of his appointment.¶

^C10241 The liquidator shall, within 14 days after his appointment, publish in the Gazette and deliver to the registrar of companies for registration a notice of his appointment in the form prescribed by statutory instrument made by the Secretary of State.

2 If the liquidator fails to comply with this section, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

^E2^C1461110 Acceptance of shares, etc., as consideration for sale of company property.¶

1 This section applies, in the case of a company proposed to be, or being, wound up voluntarily, where the whole or part of the company’s business or property is proposed to be transferred or sold

a to another company (“the transferee company"), whether or not the latter is a company registered under the Companies Act 2006, or

b to a limited liability partnership (the “transferee limited liability partnership").

2 With the requisite sanction, the liquidator of the company being, or proposed to be, wound up (“the transferor company") may receive, in compensation or part compensation for the transfer or sale—

a in the case of the transferee company, shares, policies or other like interests in the transferee company for distribution among the members of the transferor company, or

b in the case of the transferee limited liability partnership, membership in the transferee limited liability partnership for distribution among the members of the transferor company.

3 The sanction requisite under subsection (2) is—

a in the case of a members’ voluntary winding up, that of a special resolution of the company, conferring either a general authority on the liquidator or an authority in respect of any particular arrangement, and

b in the case of a creditors’ voluntary winding up, that of either the court or the liquidation committee.

4 Alternatively to subsection (2), the liquidator may (with that sanction) enter into any other arrangement whereby the members of the transferor company may—

a in the case of the transferee company, in lieu of receiving cash, shares, policies or other like interests (or in addition thereto) participate in the profits of, or receive any other benefit from, the transferee company, or

b in the case of the transferee limited liability partnership, in lieu of receiving cash or membership (or in addition thereto), participate in some other way in the profits of, or receive any other benefit from, the transferee limited liability partnership.

5 A sale or arrangement in pursuance of this section is binding on members of the transferor company.

6 A special resolution is not invalid for purposes of this section by reason that it is passed before or concurrently with a resolution for voluntary winding up or for appointing liquidators; but, if an order is made within a year for winding up the company by the court, the special resolution is not valid unless sanctioned by the court.

^C105^C1461111 Dissent from arrangement under s. 110.¶

1 This section applies in the case of a voluntary winding up where, for the purposes of section 110(2) or (4), there has been passed a special resolution of the transferor company providing the sanction requisite for the liquidator under that section.

2 If a member of the transferor company who did not vote in favour of the special resolution expresses his dissent from it in writing, addressed to the liquidator and left at the company’s registered office within 7 days after the passing of the resolution, he may require the liquidator either to abstain from carrying the resolution into effect or to purchase his interest at a price to be determined by agreement or by arbitration under this section.

3 If the liquidator elects to purchase the member’s interest, the purchase money must be paid before the company is dissolved and be raised by the liquidator in such manner as may be determined by special resolution.

4 For purposes of an arbitration under this section, the provisions of the ^M4Companies Clauses Consolidation Act 1845 or, in the case of a winding up in Scotland, the ^M5Companies Clauses Consolidation (Scotland) Act 1845 with respect to the settlement of disputes by arbitration are incorporated with this Act, and—

a in the construction of those provisions this Act is deemed the special Act and “the company” means the transferor company, and

b any appointment by the incorporated provisions directed to be made under the hand of the secretary or any two of the directors may be made in writing by the liquidator (or, if there is more than one liquidator, then any two or more of them).

^C106^C1507112 Reference of questions to court.¶

1 The liquidator or any contributory or creditor may apply to the court to determine any question arising in the winding up of a company, or to exercise, as respects the enforcing of calls or any other matter, all or any of the powers which the court might exercise if the company were being wound up by the court.

2 The court, if satisfied that the determination of the question or the required exercise of power will be just and beneficial, may accede wholly or partially to the application on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit, or may make such other order on the application as it thinks just.

^C10253 A copy of an order made by virtue of this section staying the proceedings in the winding up shall forthwith be forwarded by the company, or otherwise as may be prescribed, to the registrar of companies, who shall enter it in his records relating to the company.

^C107^C1462113 Court’s power to control proceedings (Scotland).¶

If the court, on the application of the liquidator in the winding up of a company registered in Scotland, so directs, no action or proceeding shall be proceeded with or commenced against the company except by leave of the court and subject to such terms as the court may impose.

^C108^C1462114 No liquidator appointed or nominated by company.¶

1 This section applies where, in the case of a voluntary winding up, no liquidator has been appointed or nominated by the company.

2 The powers of the directors shall not be exercised, except with the sanction of the court or (in the case of a creditors’ voluntary winding up) so far as may be necessary to secure compliance with sections ^F1378... 99 (statement of affairs) and 100(1B) (nomination of liquidator by creditors), during the period before the appointment or nomination of a liquidator of the company.

3 Subsection (2) does not apply in relation to the powers of the directors—

a to dispose of perishable goods and other goods the value of which is likely to diminish if they are not immediately disposed of, and

b to do all such other things as may be necessary for the protection of the company’s assets.

4 If the directors of the company without reasonable excuse fail to comply with this section, they are liable to a fine.

^C109^C1462115 Expenses of voluntary winding up.¶

After the payment of any liabilities to which section 174A applies, all expenses properly incurred in the winding up, including the remuneration of the liquidator, are payable out of the company’s assets in priority to all other claims.

116 Saving for certain rights.¶

The voluntary winding up of a company does not bar the right of any creditor or contributory to have it wound up by the court; but in the case of an application by a contributory the court must be satisfied that the rights of the contributories will be prejudiced by a voluntary winding up.

^C1213Chapter VI Winding Up by the Court¶

Jurisdiction (England and Wales)¶

^C110^C111117 High Court and county court jurisdiction.¶

1 The High Court has jurisdiction to wind up any company registered in England and Wales.

2 Where in the case of a company registered in England and Wales the amount of its share capital paid up or credited as paid up does not exceed £120,000, then (subject to this section) the county court ^F731... has concurrent jurisdiction with the High Court to wind up the company.

2A Despite subsection (2), proceedings for the exercise of the jurisdiction to wind up a company registered in England and Wales may be commenced only in the High Court if the place which has longest been the company’s registered office during the 6 months immediately preceding the presentation of the petition for winding up is in the district that is the London insolvency district for the purposes of the second Group of Parts of this Act.

3 The money sum for the time being specified in subsection (2) is subject to increase or reduction by order under section 416 in Part XV.

^F7294 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

5 Every court in England and Wales having winding-up jurisdiction has for the purposes of that jurisdiction all the powers of the High Court; and every prescribed officer of the court shall perform any duties which an officer of the High Court may discharge by order of a judge of that court or otherwise in relation to winding up.

8 The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under this section.

118 Proceedings taken in wrong court.¶

1 Nothing in section 117 invalidates a proceeding by reason of its being taken in the wrong court.

2 The winding up of a company by the court in England and Wales, or any proceedings in the winding up, may be retained in the court in which the proceedings were commenced, although it may not be the court in which they ought to have been commenced.

119 Proceedings in county court; case stated for High Court.¶

1 If any question arises in any winding-up proceedings in a county court which all the parties to the proceedings, or which one of them and the judge of the court, desire to have determined in the first instance in the High Court, the judge shall state the facts in the form of a special case for the opinion of the High Court.

2 Thereupon the special case and the proceedings (or such of them as may be required) shall be transmitted to the High Court for the purposes of the determination.

Jurisdiction (Scotland)¶

^C112120 Court of Session and sheriff court jurisdiction.¶

1 The Court of Session has jurisdiction to wind up any company registered in Scotland.

2 When the Court of Session is in vacation, the jurisdiction conferred on that court by this section may (subject to the provisions of this Part) be exercised by the judge acting as vacation judge in pursuance of section 4 of the Admnistration of Justice (Scotland) Act 1933.

3 Where the amount of a company’s share capital paid up or credited as paid up does not exceed £120,000, the sheriff court of the sheriffdom in which the company’s registered office is situated has concurrent jurisdiction with the Court of Session to wind up the company; but—

a the Court of Session may, if it thinks expedient having regard to the amount of the company’s assets to do so—

i remit to a sheriff court any petition presented to the Court of Session for winding up such a company, or

ii require such a petition presented to a sheriff court to be remitted to the Court of Session; and

b the Court of Session may require any such petition as above mentioned presented to one sheriff court to be remitted to another sheriff court; and

c in a winding up in the sheriff court the sheriff may submit a stated case for the opinion of the Court of Session on any question of law arising in that winding up.

4 For purposes of this section, the expression “registered office” means the place which has longest been the company’s registered office during the 6 months immediately preceding the presentation of the petition for winding up.

5 The money sum for the time being specified in subsection (3) is subject to increase or reduction by order under section 416 in Part XV.

^C869121 Power to remit winding up to Lord Ordinary.¶

1 The Court of Session may, by Act of Sederunt, make provision for the taking of proceedings in a winding up before one of the Lords Ordinary; and, where provision is so made, the Lord Ordinary has, for the purposes of the winding up all the powers and jurisdiction of the court.

2 However, the Lord Ordinary may report to the Inner House any matter which may arise in the course of a winding up.

Grounds and effect of winding-up petition¶

^C113^C1014^C1013122 ^C1213 Circumstances in which company may be wound up by the court.¶

^C1141 A company may be wound up by the court if—

a the company has by special resolution resolved that the company be wound up by the court,

^C115b being a public company which was registered as such on its original incorporation, the company has not been issued with a trading certificate under section 761 of the Companies Act 2006 (requirement as to minimum share capital) and more than a year has expired since it was so registered,

c it is an old public company, within the meaning of the Schedule 3 to the Companies Act 2006 (Consequential Amendments, Transitional Provisions and Savings) Order 2009,

d the company does not commence its business within a year from its incorporation or suspends its business for a whole year;

^F122e . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C116^C117^C1206f the company is unable to pay its debts,

^F1477fa . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

g the court is of the opinion that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up.

^C9802 In Scotland, a company which the Court of Session has jurisdiction to wind up may be wound up by the Court if there is subsisting a floating charge over property comprised in the company’s property and undertaking, and the court is satisfied that the security of the creditor entitled to the benefit of the floating charge is in jeopardy.For this purpose a creditor’s security is deemed to be in jeopardy if the Court is satisfied that events have occurred or are about to occur which render it unreasonable in the creditor’s interests that the company should retain power to dispose of the property which is subject to the floating charge.

^C118^C119123 Definition of inability to pay debts.¶

1 A company is deemed unable to pay its debts—

a if a creditor (by assignment or otherwise) to whom the company is indebted in a sum exceeding £750 then due has served on the company, by leaving it at the company’s registered office, a written demand (in the prescribed form) requiring the company to pay the sum so due and the company has for 3 weeks thereafter neglected to pay the sum or to secure or compound for it to the reasonable satisfaction of the creditor, or

b if, in England and Wales, execution or other process issued on a judgment, decree or order of any court in favour of a creditor of the company is returned unsatisfied in whole or in part, or

c if, in Scotland, the induciae of a charge for payment on an extract decree, or an extract registered bond, or an extract registered protest, have expired without payment being made, or

d if, in Northern Ireland, a certificate of unenforceability has been granted in respect of a judgment against the company, or

e if it is proved to the satisfaction of the court that the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due.

2 A company is also deemed unable to pay its debts if it is proved to the satisfaction of the court that the value of the company’s assets is less than the amount of its liabilities, taking into account its contingent and prospective liabilities.

3 The money sum for the time being specified in subsection (1)(a) is subject to increase or reduction by order under section 416 in Part XV.

^C120^C121^C1082^C1204^C1213^C1205^C1203^C1438^C1440^C1446124 ^C1213 Application for winding up.¶

1 Subject to the provisions of this section, an application to the court for the winding up of a company shall be by petition presented either by the company, or the directors, or by any creditor or creditors (including any contingent or prospective creditor or creditors), contributory or contributories, ^F1534... or by the designated officer for a magistrates' court in the exercise of the power conferred by section 87A of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980 (enforcement of fines imposed on companies), or by all or any of those parties, together or separately.

2 Except as mentioned below, a contributory is not entitled to present a winding-up petition unless either—

a the number of members is reduced below 2, or

b the shares in respect of which he is a contributory, or some of them, either were originally allotted to him, or have been held by him, and registered in his name, for at least 6 months during the 18 months before the commencement of the winding up, or have devolved on him through the death of a former holder.

3 A person who is liable under section 76 to contribute to a company’s assets in the event of its being wound up may petition on either of the grounds set out in section 122(1)(f) and (g), and subsection (2) above does not then apply; but unless the person is a contributory otherwise than under section 76, he may not in his character as contributory petition on any other ground.^F125. . .

^F14783A . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4 A winding-up petition may be presented by the Secretary of State—

a if the ground of the petition is that in section 122(1)(b) or (c), or

^C992b in a case falling within section 124A or 124B below.

4AA A winding up petition may be presented by the Financial Conduct Authority in a case falling within section 124C(1) or (2).

4A A winding-up petition may be presented by the Regulator of Community Interest Companies in a case falling within section 50 of the Companies (Audit, Investigations and Community Enterprise) Act 2004.

5 Where a company is being wound up voluntarily in England and Wales, a winding-up petition may be presented by the official receiver attached to the court as well as by any other person authorised in that behalf under the other provisions of this section; but the court shall not make a winding-up order on the petition unless it is satisfied that the voluntary winding up cannot be continued with due regard to the interests of the creditors or contributories.

^C870^C1180124A Petition for winding up on grounds of public interest.¶

1 Where it appears to the Secretary of State from—

a any report made or information obtained under Part XIV (except section 448A) of the ^M6 Companies Act 1985 (company investigations, &c.),

b any report made by inspectors under—

i section 167, 168, 169 or 284 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, or

ii where the company is an open-ended investment company (within the meaning of that Act), regulations made as a result of section 262(2)(k) of that Act;

bb any information or documents obtained under section 165, 171, 172, 173 or 175 of that Act,

c any information obtained under section 2 of the ^M7 Criminal Justice Act 1987 or section 28 of the Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995 (fraud investigations), or

d any information obtained under section 83 of the Companies Act 1989 (powers exercisable for purpose of assisting overseas regulatory authorities),

that it is expedient in the public interest that a company should be wound up, he may present a petition for it to be wound up if the court thinks it just and equitable for it to be so.

2 This section does not apply if the company is already being wound up by the court.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C122^C871^C1139125 Powers of court on hearing of petition.¶

1 On hearing a winding-up petition the court may dismiss it, or adjourn the hearing conditionally or unconditionally, or make an interim order, or any other order that it thinks fit; but the court shall not refuse to make a winding-up order on the ground only that the company’s assets have been mortgaged to an amount equal to or in excess of those assets, or that the company has no assets.

2 If the petition is presented by members of the company as contributories on the ground that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up, the court, if it is of opinion—

a that the petitioners are entitled to relief either by winding up the company or by some other means, and

b that in the absence of any other remedy it would be just and equitable that the company should be wound up,

shall make a winding-up order; but this does not apply if the court is also of the opinion both that some other remedy is available to the petitioners and that they are acting unreasonably in seeking to have the company wound up instead of pursuing that other remedy.

^C123^C872^C1463126 Power to stay or restrain proceedings against company.¶

1 At any time after the presentation of a winding-up petition, and before a winding-up order has been made, the company, or any creditor or contributory, may—

a where any action or proceeding against the company is pending in the High Court or Court of Appeal in England and Wales or Northern Ireland, apply to the court in which the action or proceeding is pending for a stay of proceedings therein, and

b where any other action or proceeding is pending against the company, apply to the court having jurisdiction to wind up the company to restrain further proceedings in the action or proceeding;

and the court to which the application is so made may (as the case may be) stay, sist or restrain the proceedings accordingly on such terms as it thinks fit.

^C1242 In the case of a company registered but not formed under the Companies Act 2006, where the application to stay, sist or restrain is by a creditor, this section extends to actions and proceedings against any contributory of the company.

3 Subsection (1) applies in relation to any action being taken in respect of the company under Part 1 of Schedule 8 to the Finance (No. 2) Act 2015 (enforcement by deduction from accounts) as it applies in relation to any action or proceeding mentioned in paragraph (b) of that subsection.

^C125^C126^C127^C128^C873^C1463127 Avoidance of property dispositions, etc.¶

1 In a winding up by the court, any disposition of the company’s property, and any transfer of shares, or alteration in the status of the company’s members, made after the commencement of the winding up is, unless the court otherwise orders, void.

2 This section has no effect in respect of anything done by an administrator of a company while a winding-up petition is suspended under paragraph 40 of Schedule B1.

3 This section has no effect in respect of anything done during a moratorium under Part A1, or during a period mentioned in section 5(4)(a) following the end of a moratorium, where the winding-up order was made on a petition presented before the moratorium begins, unless the petition was presented under section 367 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 on the ground mentioned in section 367(3)(b) of that Act.

^C129^C130^C131^C874^C1463128 Avoidance of attachments, etc.¶

1 Where a company registered in England and Wales is being wound up by the court, any attachment, sequestration, distress or execution put in force against the estate or effects of the company after the commencement of the winding up is void.

2 This section, so far as relates to any estate or effects of the company situated in England and Wales, applies in the case of a company registered in Scotland as it applies in the case of a company registered in England and Wales.

3 In subsection (1) “attachment” includes a hold notice or a deduction notice under Part 1 of Schedule 8 to the Finance (No. 2) Act 2015 (enforcement by deduction from accounts) and, if subsection (1) has effect in relation to a deduction notice, it also has effect in relation to the hold notice to which the deduction notice relates (whenever the hold notice was given).

Commencement of winding up¶

^C132^C875129 ^C1213 Commencement of winding up by the court.¶

1 If, before the presentation of a petition for the winding up of a company by the court, a resolution has been passed by the company for voluntary winding up, the winding up of the company is deemed to have commenced at the time of the passing of the resolution; and unless the court, on proof of fraud or mistake, directs otherwise, all proceedings taken in the voluntary winding up are deemed to have been validly taken.

^C133^C134^C1104^C1099^C11191A Where the court makes a winding-up order by virtue of paragraph 13(1)(e) of Schedule B1, the winding up is deemed to commence on the making of the order.

^C12082 In any other case, the winding up of a company by the court is deemed to commence at the time of the presentation of the petition for winding up.

^C135^C136^C137^C876^C1181130 Consequences of winding-up order.¶

^C1026^C14741 On the making of a winding-up order, a copy of the order must forthwith be forwarded by the company (or otherwise as may be prescribed) to the registrar of companies, who shall enter it in his records relating to the company.

2 When a winding-up order has been made or a provisional liquidator has been appointed, no action or proceeding shall be proceeded with or commenced against the company or its property, except by leave of the court and subject to such terms as the court may impose.

3 When an order has been made for winding up a company registered but not formed under the Companies Act 2006, no action or proceeding shall be commenced or proceeded with against the company or its property or any contributory of the company, in respect of any debt of the company, except by leave of the court, and subject to such terms as the court may impose.

3A In subsections (2) and (3), the reference to an action or proceeding includes action in respect of the company under Part 1 of Schedule 8 to the Finance (No. 2) Act 2015 (enforcement by deduction from accounts).

4 An order for winding up a company operates in favour of all the creditors and of all contributories of the company as if made on the joint petition of a creditor and of a contributory.

Investigation procedures¶

^C138^C139^C877^C1487131 Company’s statement of affairs.¶

1 Where the court has made a winding-up order or appointed a provisional liquidator, the official receiver may require some or all of the persons mentioned in subsection (3) below to make out and submit to him a statement in the prescribed form as to the affairs of the company.

2 The statement ^F138. . . shall show—

a particulars of the company’s assets, debts and liabilities;

b the names and addresses of the company’s creditors;

c the securities held by them respectively;

d the dates when the securities were respectively given; and

e such further or other information as may be prescribed or as the official receiver may require

2A The statement shall be verified by the persons required to submit it—

d those who are or have been within that year officers of, or in the employment of, a company which is, or within that year was, an officer of the company.

4 Where any persons are required under this section to submit a statement of affairs to the official receiver, they shall do so (subject to the next subsection) before the end of the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the prescribed notice of the requirement is given to them by the official receiver.

5 The official receiver, if he thinks fit, may—

a at any time release a person from an obligation imposed on him under subsection (1) or (2) above; or

b either when giving the notice mentioned in subsection (4) or subsequently, extend the period so mentioned;

and where the official receiver has refused to exercise a power conferred by this subsection, the court, if it thinks fit, may exercise it.

6 In this section—

“employment” includes employment under a contract for services; and
“the relevant date” means—

a in a case where a provisional liquidator is appointed, the date of his appointment; and

b in a case where no such appointment is made, the date of the winding-up order.

7 If a person without reasonable excuse fails to comply with any obligation imposed under this section, he is liable to a fine and, for continued contravention, to a daily default fine.

8 In the application of this section to Scotland references to the official receiver are to the liquidator or, in a case where a provisional liquidator is appointed, the provisional liquidator.

^C878132 Investigation by official receiver.¶

1 Where a winding-up order is made by the court in England and Wales, it is the duty of the official receiver to investigate—

a if the company has failed, the causes of the failure; and

b generally, the promotion, formation, business, dealings and affairs of the company,

and to make such report (if any) to the court as he thinks fit.

2 The report is, in any proceedings, prima facie evidence of the facts stated in it.

^C140^C879^C1464^C1542133 Public examination of officers¶

1 Where a company is being wound up by the court, the official receiver or, in Scotland, the liquidator may at any time before the dissolution of the company apply to the court for the public examination of any person who—

a is or has been an officer of the company; or

b has acted as liquidator or administrator of the company or as receiver or manager or, in Scotland, receiver of its property; or

c not being a person falling within paragraph (a) or (b), is or has been concerned, or has taken part, in the promotion, formation or management of the company.

2 Unless the court otherwise orders, the official receiver or, in Scotland, the liquidator shall make an application under subsection (1) if he is requested in accordance with the rules to do so by—

a one-half, in value, of the company’s creditors; or

b three-quarters, in value, of the company’s contributories.

3 On an application under subsection (1), the court shall direct that a public examination of the person to whom the application relates shall be held on a day appointed by the court; and that person shall attend on that day and be publicly examined as to the promotion, formation or management of the company or as to the conduct of its business and affairs, or his conduct or dealings in relation to the company.

4 The following may take part in the public examination of a person under this section and may question that person concerning the matters mentioned in subsection (3), namely—

a the official receiver;

b the liquidator of the company;

c any person who has been appointed as special manager of the company’s property or business;

d any creditor of the company who has tendered a proof or, in Scotland, submitted a claim in the winding up;

e any contributory of the company.

^C141^C880^C1464134 Enforcement of s. 133.¶

1 If a person without reasonable excuse fails at any time to attend his public examination under section 133, he is guilty of a contempt of court and liable to be punished accordingly.

2 In a case where a person without reasonable excuse fails at any time to attend his examination under section 133 or there are reasonable grounds for believing that a person has absconded, or is about to abscond, with a view to avoiding or delaying his examination under that section, the court may cause a warrant to be issued to a constable or prescribed officer of the court—

a for the arrest of that person; and

b for the seizure of any books, papers, records, money or goods in that person’s possession.

3 In such a case the court may authorise the person arrested under the warrant to be kept in custody, and anything seized under such a warrant to be held, in accordance with the rules, until such time as the court may order.

Appointment of liquidator¶

^C142^C881^C1057^C1058^C1140^C1464135 Appointment and powers of provisional liquidator.¶

1 Subject to the provisions of this section, the court may, at any time after the presentation of a winding-up petition, appoint a liquidator provisionally.

2 In England and Wales, the appointment of a provisional liquidator may be made at any time before the making of a winding-up order; and either the official receiver or any other fit person may be appointed.

3 In Scotland, such an appointment may be made at any time before the first appointment of liquidators.

4 The provisional liquidator shall carry out such functions as the court may confer on him.

5 When a liquidator is provisionally appointed by the court, his powers may be limited by the order appointing him.

^C143^C882136 Functions of official receiver in relation to office of liquidator.¶

1 The following provisions of this section have effect, subject to section 140 below, on a winding-up order being made by the court in England and Wales.

2 The official receiver, by virtue of his office, becomes the liquidator of the company and continues in office until another person becomes liquidator under the provisions of this Part.

3 The official receiver is, by virtue of his office, the liquidator during any vacancy.

4 At any time when he is the liquidator of the company, the official receiver may in accordance with the rules seek nominations from the company’s creditors and contributories for the purpose of choosing a person to be liquidator of the company in place of the official receiver.

5 It is the duty of the official receiver—

a as soon as practicable in the period of 12 weeks beginning with the day on which the winding-up order was made, to decide whether to exercise his power under sub-section (4) ^F1381... , and

b if in pursuance of paragraph (a) he decides not to exercise that power, to give notice of his decision, before the end of that period, to the court and to the company’s creditors and contributories, and

c (whether or not he has decided to exercise that power) to exercise his power ^F1382... under subsection (4) if he is at any time requested, in accordance with rules, to do so by one-quarter, in value, of the company’s creditors;

and accordingly, where the duty imposed by paragraph (c) arises before the official receiver has performed a duty imposed by paragraph (a) or (b), he is not required to perform the latter duty.

6 A notice given under subsection (5)(b) to the company’s creditors shall contain an explanation of the creditors’ power under subsection (5)(c) to require the official receiver to seek nominations from the company’s creditors and contributories.

^C144^C883137 Appointment by Secretary of State.¶

1 In a winding up by the court in England and Wales the official receiver may, at any time when he is the liquidator of the company, apply to the Secretary of State for the appointment of a person as liquidator in his place.

2 If nominations are sought from the company's creditors and contributories in pursuance of a decision under section 136(5)(a), but no person is chosen to be liquidator as a result ^F1385..., it is the duty of the official receiver to decide whether to refer the need for an appointment to the Secretary of State.

3 On an application under subsection (1), or a reference made in pursuance of a decision under subsection (2), the Secretary of State shall either make an appointment or decline to make one.

4 Where a liquidator has been appointed by the Secretary of State under subsection (3), the liquidator shall give notice of his appointment to the company’s creditors or, if the court so allows, shall advertise his appointment in accordance with the directions of the court.

5 In that notice or advertisement the liquidator must explain the procedure for establishing a liquidation committee under section 141.

^C145^C884^C1465138 Appointment of liquidator in Scotland.¶

1 Where a winding-up order is made by the court in Scotland, a liquidator shall be appointed by the court at the time when the order is made.

2 The liquidator so appointed (here referred to as “the interim liquidator”) continues in office until another person becomes liquidator in his place under this section or the next.

3 The interim liquidator shall (subject to the next subsection) as soon as practicable in the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the winding-up order was made or such longer period as the court may allow, in accordance with the rules seek nominations from the company’s creditors and contributories for the purpose of choosing a person (who may be the person who is the interim liquidator) to be liquidator of the company in place of the interim liquidator.

4 If it appears to the interim liquidator, in any case where a company is being wound up on grounds including its inability to pay its debts, that it would be inappropriate to seek a nomination from the company's contributories under subsection (3), he may seek a nomination only from the company’s creditors for the purpose mentioned in that subsection.

5 If a nomination is sought from the company's creditors, or nominations are sought from the company's creditors and contributories, in pursuance of this section but no person is appointed or nominated as a result, the interim liquidator shall make a report to the court which shall appoint either the interim liquidator or some other person to be liquidator of the company.

6 A person who becomes liquidator of the company in place of the interim liquidator shall, unless he is appointed by the court, forthwith notify the court of that fact.

^C146^C885^C1465139 Choice of liquidator by creditors and contributories.¶

1 This section applies where a company is being wound up by the court and nominations are sought from the company's creditors and contributories for the purpose of choosing a person to be liquidator of the company.

2 The creditors and the contributories may in accordance with the rules nominate a person to be liquidator.

3 The liquidator shall be the person nominated by the creditors or, where no person has been so nominated, the person (if any) nominated by the contributories.

4 In the case of different persons being nominated, any contributory or creditor may, within 7 days after the date on which the nomination was made by the creditors, apply to the court for an order either—

a appointing the person nominated as liquidator by the contributories to be a liquidator instead of, or jointly with, the person nominated by the creditors; or

b appointing some other person to be liquidator instead of the person nominated by the creditors.

^C147^C1465^C1534140 Appointment by the court following administration or voluntary arrangement.¶

1 Where a winding-up order is made immediately upon the appointment of an administrator ceasing to have effect, the court may appoint as liquidator of the company the person whose appointment as administrator has ceased to have effect.

2 Where a winding-up order is made at a time when there is a supervisor of a voluntary arrangement approved in relation to the company under Part I, the court may appoint as liquidator of the company the person who is the supervisor at the time when the winding-up order is made.

3 Where the court makes an appointment under this section, the official receiver does not become the liquidator as otherwise provided by section 136(2), and section 136(5)(a) and (b) does not apply.

Liquidation committees¶

^C148^C149^C886141 Liquidation committee (England and Wales).¶

1 This section applies where a winding up order has been made by the court in England and Wales.

2 If both the company's creditors and the company's contributories decide that a liquidation committee should be established, a liquidation committee is to be established in accordance with the rules.

3 If only the company's creditors, or only the company's contributories, decide that a liquidation committee should be established, a liquidation committee is to be established in accordance with the rules unless the court orders otherwise.

3A A “liquidation committee” is a committee having such functions as are conferred on it by or under this Act.

3B The liquidator must seek a decision from the company's creditors and contributories as to whether a liquidation committee should be established if requested, in accordance with the rules, to do so by one-tenth in value of the company's creditors.

3C Subsection (3B) does not apply where the liquidator is the official receiver.

4 The liquidation committee is not to be able or required to carry out its functions at any time when the official receiver is liquidator; but at any such time its functions are vested in the Secretary of State except to the extent that the rules otherwise provide.

5 Where there is for the time being no liquidation committee, and the liquidator is a person other than the official receiver, the functions of such a committee are vested in the Secretary of State except to the extent that the rules otherwise provide.

^C150^C151^C887^C1466142 Liquidation committee (Scotland).¶

1 This section applies where a winding up order has been made by the court in Scotland.

3A A “liquidation committee” is a committee having such functions as are conferred on it by or under this Act.

4 A liquidator appointed by the court other than under section 139(4)(a) must seek a decision from the company's creditors and contributories as to whether a liquidation committee should be established if requested, in accordance with the rules, to do so by one-tenth in value of the company's creditors.

5 Where in the case of any winding up there is for the time being no liquidation committee, the functions of such a committee are vested in the court except to the extent that the rules otherwise provide.

6 A “liquidation committee” is a committee having the powers and duties conferred and imposed on it by this Act, and such of the powers and duties of commissioners in a sequestration as may be conferred and imposed on such committees by the rules.

The liquidator’s functions¶

^C152^C153^C888^C1182^C1466143 General functions in winding up by the court.¶

1 The functions of the liquidator of a company which is being wound up by the court are to secure that the assets of the company are got in, realised and distributed to the company’s creditors and, if there is a surplus, to the persons entitled to it.

2 It is the duty of the liquidator of a company which is being wound up by the court in England and Wales, if he is not the official receiver—

a to furnish the official receiver with such information,

b to produce to the official receiver, and permit inspection by the official receiver of, such books, papers and other records, and

c to give the official receiver such other assistance,

as the official receiver may reasonably require for the purposes of carrying out his functions in relation to the winding up.

^C154^C155^C889^C1466144 Custody of company’s property.¶

1 When a winding-up order has been made, or where a provisional liquidator has been appointed, the liquidator or the provisional liquidator (as the case may be) shall take into his custody or under his control all the property and things in action to which the company is or appears to be entitled.

2 In a winding up by the court in Scotland, if and so long as there is no liquidator, all the property of the company is deemed to be in the custody of the court.

^C156^C157^C890^C1466145 Vesting of company property in liquidator.¶

1 When a company is being wound up by the court, the court may on the application of the liquidator by order direct that all or any part of the property of whatsoever description belonging to the company or held by trustees on its behalf shall vest in the liquidator by his official name; and thereupon the property to which the order relates vests accordingly.

2 The liquidator may, after giving such indemnity (if any) as the court may direct, bring or defend in his official name any action or other legal proceeding which relates to that property or which it is necessary to bring or defend for the purpose of effectually winding up the company and recovering its property.

^C158^C891^C1466146 Final account¶

1 This section applies where a company is being wound up by the court and the liquidator is not the official receiver.

2 If it appears to the liquidator that the winding up of the company is for practical purposes complete the liquidator must make up an account of the winding up, showing how it has been conducted and the company's property has been disposed of.

3 The liquidator must—

a send a copy of the account to the company's creditors (other than opted-out creditors), and

b give the company's creditors (other than opted-out creditors) a notice explaining the effect of section 174(4)(d) and how they may object to the liquidator's release.

^C11834 The liquidator must during the relevant period send to the court and the registrar of companies—

a a copy of the account, and

b a statement of whether any of the company's creditors objected to the liquidator's release.

5 The relevant period is the period of 7 days beginning with the day after the last day of the period prescribed by the rules as the period within which the creditors may object to the liquidator's release.

General powers of court¶

^C159^C160^C892^C1488147 Power to stay or sist winding up.¶

1 The court may at any time after an order for winding up, on the application either of the liquidator or the official receiver or any creditor or contributory, and on proof to the satisfaction of the court that all proceedings in the winding up ought to be stayed or sisted, make an order staying or sisting the proceedings, either altogether or for a limited time, on such terms and conditions as the court thinks fit.

2 The court may, before making an order, require the official receiver to furnish to it a report with respect to any facts or matters which are in his opinion relevant to the application.

^C10273 A copy of every order made under this section shall forthwith be forwarded by the company, or otherwise as may be prescribed, to the registrar of companies, who shall enter it in his records relating to the company.

^C161^C162148 Settlement of list of contributories and application of assets.¶

1 As soon as may be after making a winding-up order, the court shall settle a list of contributories, with power to rectify the register of members in all cases where rectification is required ^F141. . . , and shall cause the company’s assets to be collected, and applied in discharge of its liabilities.

2 If it appears to the court that it will not be necessary to make calls on or adjust the rights of contributories, the court may dispense with the settlement of a list of contributories.

3 In settling the list, the court shall distinguish between persons who are contributories in their own right and persons who are contributories as being representatives of or liable for the debts of others.

^C163149 Debts due from contributory to company.¶

1 The court may, at any time after making a winding-up order, make an order on any contributory for the time being on the list of contributories to pay, in manner directed by the order, any money due from him (or from the estate of the person who he represents) to the company, exclusive of any money payable by him or the estate by virtue of any call ^F142. . . .

2 The court in making such an order may—

a in the case of an unlimited company, allow to the contributory by way of set-off any money due to him or the estate which he represents from the company on any independent dealing or contract with the company, but not any money due to him as a member of the company in respect of any dividend or profit, and

b in the case of a limited company, make to any director or manager whose liability is unlimited or to his estate the like allowance.

3 In the case of any company, whether limited or unlimited, when all the creditors are paid in full (together with interest at the official rate) any money due on any account whatever to a contributory from the company may be allowed to him by way of set-off against any subsequent call.

^C164150 Power to make calls.¶

1 The court may, at any time after making a winding-up order, and either before or after it has ascertained the sufficiency of the company’s assets, make calls on all or any of the contributories for the time being settled on the list of the contributories to the extent of their liability, for payment of any money which the court considers necessary to satisfy the company’s debts and liabilities, and the expenses of winding up, and for the adjustment of the rights of the contributories among themselves, and make an order for payment of any calls so made.

2 In making a call the court may take into consideration the probability that some of the contributories may partly or wholly fail to pay it.

^F889151 Payment into bank of money due to company.¶

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C165152 Order on contributory to be conclusive evidence.¶

1 An order made by the court on a contributory is conclusive evidence that the money (if any) thereby appearing to be due or ordered to be paid is due, but subject to any right of appeal.

2 All other pertinent matters stated in the order are to be taken as truly stated as against all persons and in all proceedings except proceedings in Scotland against the heritable estate of a deceased contributory; and in that case the order is only prima facie evidence for the purpose of charging his heritable estate, unless his heirs or legatees of heritage were on the list of contributories at the time of the order being made.

^C166^C893153 Power to exclude creditors not proving in time.¶

The court may fix a time or times within which creditors are to prove their debts or claims or to be excluded from the benefit of any distribution made before those debts are proved.

^C167154 Adjustment of rights of contributories.¶

The court shall adjust the rights of the contributories among themselves and distribute any surplus among the persons entitled to it.

^C168^C169^C170^C894155 Inspection of books by creditors, etc.¶

1 The court may, at any time after making a winding-up order, make such order for inspection of the company’s books and papers by creditors and contributories as the court thinks just; and any books and papers in the company’s possession may be inspected by creditors and contributories accordingly, but not further or otherwise.

2 Nothing in this section excludes or restricts any statutory rights of a government department or person acting under the authority of a government department.

3 For the purposes of subsection (2) above, references to a government department shall be construed as including references to any part of the Scottish Administration.

^C171^C172^C895156 Payment of expenses of winding up.¶

The court may, in the event of the assets being insufficient to satisfy the liabilities, make an order as to the payment out of the assets of the expenses incurred in the winding up in such order of priority as the court thinks just.

^C173^C896157 Attendance at company meetings (Scotland).¶

In the winding up by the court of a company registered in Scotland, the court has power to require the attendance of any officer of the company at any meeting of creditors or of contributories, or of a liquidation committee, for the purpose of giving information as to the trade, dealings, affairs or property of the company.

^C174158 Power to arrest absconding contributory.¶

The court, at any time either before or after making a winding-up order, on proof of probable cause for believing that a contributory is about to quit the United Kingdom or otherwise to abscond or to remove or conceal any of his property for the purpose of evading payment of calls, may cause the contributory to be arrested and his books and papers and moveable personal property to be seized and him and them to be kept safely until such time as the court may order.

^C897159 Powers of court to be cumulative.¶

Powers conferred on the court by this Act are in addition to, and not in restriction of, any existing powers of instituting proceedings against a contributory or debtor of the company, or the estate of any contributory or debtor, for the recovery of any call or other sums.

^C175^C898160 Delegation of powers to liquidator (England and Wales).¶

1 Provision may be made by rules for enabling or requiring all or any of the powers and duties conferred and imposed on the court in England and Wales ^F145... in respect of the following matters—

a the seeking of decisions on any matter from creditors and contributories,

b the settling of lists of contributories and the rectifying of the register of members where required, and the collection and application of the assets,

c the payment, delivery, conveyance, surrender or transfer of money, property, books or papers to the liquidator,

d the making of calls,

e the fixing of a time within which debts and claims must be proved,

to be exercised or performed by the liquidator as an officer of the court, and subject to the court’s control.

2 But the liquidator shall not, without the special leave of the court, rectify the register of members, and shall not make any call without either that special leave or the sanction of the liquidation committee.

Enforcement of, and appeal from, orders¶

^C176161 Orders for calls on contributories (Scotland).¶

1 In Scotland, where an order, interlocutor or decree has been made for winding up a company by the court, it is competent to the court, on production by the liquidators of a list certified by them of the names of the contributories liable in payment of any calls, and of the amount due by each contributory, and of the date when that amount became due, to pronounce forthwith a decree against those contributories for payment of the sums so certified to be due, with interest from that date until payment (at 5 per cent. per annum) in the same way and to the same effect as if they had severally consented to registration for execution, on a charge of 6 days, of a legal obligation to pay those calls and interest.

2 The decree may be extracted immediately, and no suspension of it is competent, except on caution or consignation, unless with special leave of the court.

^C177^C178^C899^C1489162 Appeals from orders in Scotland.¶

1 Subject to the provision of this section and to rules of court, an appeal from any order or decision made or given in the winding up of a company by the court in Scotland under this Act lies in the same manner and subject to the same conditions as an appeal from an order or decision of the court in cases within its ordinary jurisdiction.

2 In regard to orders of judgments pronounced by the judge acting as vacation judge in pursuance of section 4 of the ^M8Administration of Justice (Scotland) Act 1933—

a none of the orders specified in Part I of Schedule 3 to this Act are subject to review, reduction, suspension or stay of execution, and

b every other order or judgment (except as mentioned below) may be submitted to review by the Inner House by reclaiming motion enrolled within 14 days from the date of the order or judgment.

3 However, an order being one of those specified in Part II of that Schedule shall, from the date of the order and notwithstanding that it has been submitted to review as above, be carried out and receive effect until the Inner House have disposed of the matter.

4 In regard to orders or judgments pronounced in Scotland by a Lord Ordinary before whom proceedings in a winding up are being taken, any such order or judgment may be submitted to review by the Inner House by reclaiming motion enrolled within 14 days from its date; but should it not be so submitted to review during session, the provisions of this section in regard to orders or judgments pronounced by the judge acting as vacation judge apply.

5 Nothing in this section affects provisions of the Companies Acts or this Act in reference to decrees in Scotland for payment of calls in the winding up of companies, whether voluntary or by the court.

2 The powers conferred on the liquidator by section 165 shall not be exercised, except with the sanction of the court, before—

b the procedure by which the company's creditors were to have made such a nomination concludes without a nomination having been made.

3 Subsection (2) does not apply in relation to the power of the liquidator—

7 If the liquidator without reasonable excuse fails to comply with this section, he is liable to a fine.

5B Any order or directions under subsection (5A) may be made or given on the application of the official receiver, any responsible insolvency practitioner, the trustee of the partnership or any other interested person and may include provisions as to the administration of the joint estate of the partnership, and in particular how it and the separate estate of any member are to be administered.

a in a case where that person was nominated by the company's creditors or contributories, or was appointed by the Secretary of State, the time at which the official receiver gives notice to the court that he has been replaced;

b in a case where that person is appointed by the court, such time as the court may determine.

3 If the official receiver while he is a liquidator gives notice to the Secretary of State that the winding up is for practical purposes complete, he has his release with effect from such time as the Secretary of State may determine.

4 A person other than the official receiver who has ceased to be a liquidator has his release with effect from the following time, that is to say—

a in the following cases, the time at which notice is given to the court in accordance with the rules that the person has ceased to hold office—

i the person has been removed from office by a decision of the company's creditors and the company's creditors have not decided against his release,

ii the person has died;

b in the following cases, such time as the Secretary of State may, on the application of the person, determine—

i the person has been removed from office by a decision of the company's creditors and the company's creditors have decided against his release;

ii the person has been removed from office by the court or the Secretary of State;

iii the person has vacated office under section 172(5) or (7);

c in the case of a person who has resigned, such time as may be prescribed;

d in the case of a person who has vacated office under section 172(8)—

ii otherwise, the time at which the person vacated office.

4ZA Where the person is removed from office by a decision of the company's creditors, any decision of the company's creditors as to whether the person should have his release must be made by a qualifying decision procedure.

4A Where a winding-up order made by the court in England and Wales is rescinded, the person (whether the official receiver or another person) who is the liquidator of the company at the time the order is rescinded has his release with effect from such time as the court may determine.

5 A person who has ceased to hold office as a provisional liquidator has his release with effect from such time as the court may, on an application by him, determine.

6 Where the official receiver or a liquidator or provisional liquidator has his release under this section, he is, with effect from the time specified in the preceding provisions of this section, discharged from all liability both in respect of acts or omissions of his in the winding up and otherwise in relation to his conduct as liquidator or provisional liquidator.But nothing in this section prevents the exercise, in relation to a person who has had his release under this section, of the court’s powers under section 212 (summary remedy against delinquent directors, liquidators, etc.).

7 In the application of this section to a case where the order for winding up has been made by the court in Scotland, the references to a determination by the Secretary of State as to the time from which a person who has ceased to be liquidator has his release are to such a determination by the Accountant of Court.

a any liabilities to which section 174A applies, and

Property subject to floating charge¶

^C206^C207^C208176ZA ^C1305Payment of expenses of winding up (England and Wales)¶

1 The expenses of winding up in England and Wales, so far as the assets of the company available for payment of general creditors are insufficient to meet them, have priority over any claims to property comprised in or subject to any floating charge created by the company and shall be paid out of any such property accordingly.

a by the holders of debentures secured by, or holders of, the floating charge and by any preferential creditors entitled to be paid in priority to them, or

b by the court.

4 References in this section to the expenses of the winding up are to all expenses properly incurred in the winding up, including the remuneration of the liquidator.

i is in administration, or

ii has gone into liquidation; and

i brought a claim under any provision mentioned in subsection (3), or

ii made an assignment (or, in Scotland, assignation) in relation to a right of action under any such provision under section 246ZD.

2 The proceeds of the claim or assignment (or, in Scotland, assignation) are not to be treated as part of the company's net property, that is to say the amount of its property which would be available for satisfaction of claims of holders of debentures secured by, or holders of, any floating charge created by the company.

b shall not distribute that part to the proprietor of a floating charge except in so far as it exceeds the amount required for the satisfaction of unsecured debts.

3 Subsection (2) shall not apply to a company if—

a the company’s net property is less than the prescribed minimum, and

b the liquidator, administrator or receiver thinks that the cost of making a distribution to unsecured creditors would be disproportionate to the benefits.

4 Subsection (2) shall also not apply to a company if or in so far as it is disapplied by—

a a voluntary arrangement in respect of the company, or

b a compromise or arrangement agreed under Part 26 or 26A of the Companies Act 2006 (arrangements and reconstructions).

5 Subsection (2) shall also not apply to a company if—

a the liquidator, administrator or receiver applies to the court for an order under this subsection on the ground that the cost of making a distribution to unsecured creditors would be disproportionate to the benefits, and

2 The application may be made by the liquidator or provisional liquidator in any case where it appears to him that the nature of the business or property of the company, or the interests of the company’s creditors or contributories or members generally, require the appointment of another to manage the company’s business or property.

3 The special manager has such powers as may be entrusted to him by the court.

4 The court’s power to entrust powers to the special manager includes power to direct that any provision of this Act that has effect in relation to the provisional liquidator or liquidator of a company shall have the like effect in relation to the special manager for the purposes of the carrying out by him of any of the functions of the provisional liquidator or liquidator.

^C2175 The special manager shall—

a give such security or, in Scotland, caution, as may be prescribed;

Disclaimer (England and Wales only)¶

^C218^C219^C220^C221^C908^C1305^C1314178 ^C1305 Power to disclaim onerous property.¶

1 This and the next two sections apply to a company that is being wound up in England and Wales.

^C984^C985^C983^C14542 Subject as follows, the liquidator may, by the giving of the prescribed notice, disclaim any onerous property and may do so notwithstanding that he has taken possession of it, endeavoured to sell it, or otherwise exercised rights of ownership in relation to it.

3 The following is onerous property for the purposes of this section—

a any unprofitable contract, and

b any other property of the company which is unsaleable or not readily saleable or is such that it may give rise to a liability to pay money or perform any other onerous act.

4 A disclaimer under this section—

a operates so as to determine, as from the date of the disclaimer, the rights, interests and liabilities of the company in or in respect of the property disclaimed; but

b does not, except so far as is necessary for the purpose of releasing the company from any liability, affect the rights or liabilities of any other person.

5 A notice of disclaimer shall not be given under this section in respect of any property if—

a a person interested in the property has applied in writing to the liquidator or one of his predecessors as liquidator requiring the liquidator or that predecessor to decide whether he will disclaim or not, and

b the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which that application was made, or such longer period as the court may allow, has expired without a notice of disclaimer having been given under this section in respect of that property.

6 Any person sustaining loss or damage in consequence of the operation of a disclaimer under this section is deemed a creditor of the company to the extent of the loss or damage and accordingly may prove for the loss or damage in the winding up.

^C222^C223^C909^C1305^C1315179 ^C1305 Disclaimer of leaseholds.¶

1 The disclaimer under section 178 of any property of a leasehold nature does not take effect unless a copy of the disclaimer has been served (so far as the liquidator is aware of their addresses) on every person claiming under the company as underlessee or mortgagee and either—

a no application under section 181 below is made with respect to that property before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day on which the last notice served under this subsection was served; or

b where such an application has been made, the court directs that the disclaimer shall take effect.

2 Where the court gives a direction under subsection (1)(b) it may also, instead of or in addition to any order it makes under section 181, make such orders with respect to fixtures, tenant’s improvements and other matters arising out of the lease as it thinks fit.

^C224^C225^C910^C1305^C1316180 ^C1305 Land subject to rentcharge.¶

1 The following applies where, in consequence of the disclaimer under section 178 of any land subject to a rentcharge, that land vests by operation of law in the Crown or any other person (referred to in the next subsection as “the proprietor”).

2 The proprietor and the successors in title of the proprietor are not subject to any personal liability in respect of any sums becoming due under the rentcharge except sums becoming due after the proprietor, or some person claiming under or through the proprietor, has taken possession or control of the land or has entered into occupation of it.

^C226^C227^C911^C1305^C1317181 ^C1305 Powers of court (general).¶

1 This section and the next apply where the liquidator has disclaimed property under section 178.

2 An application under this section may be made to the court by—

a any person who claims an interest in the disclaimed property, or

b any person who is under any liability in respect of the disclaimed property, not being a liability discharged by the disclaimer.

3 Subject as follows, the court may on the application make an order, on such terms as it thinks fit, for the vesting of the disclaimed property in, or for its delivery to—

a a person entitled to it or a trustee for such a person, or

b a person subject to such a liability as is mentioned in subsection (2)(b) or a trustee for such a person.

4 The court shall not make an order under subsection (3)(b) except where it appears to the court that it would be just to do so for the purpose of compensating the person subject to the liability in respect of the disclaimer.

5 The effect of any order under this section shall be taken into account in assessing for the purpose of section 178(6) the extent of any loss or damage sustained by any person in consequence of the disclaimer.

6 An order under this section vesting property in any person need not be completed by conveyance, assignment or transfer.

^C228^C229^C912^C1318^C1305182 ^C1305 Powers of court (leaseholds).¶

1 The court shall not make an order under section 181 vesting property of a leasehold nature in any person claiming under the company as underlessee or mortgagee except on terms making that person—

a subject to the same liabilities and obligations as the company was subject to under the lease at the commencement of the winding up, or

b if the court thinks fit, subject to the same liabilities and obligations as that person would be subject to if the lease had been assigned to him at the commencement of the winding up.

2 For the purposes of an order under section 181 relating to only part of any property comprised in a lease, the requirements of subsection (1) apply as if the lease comprised only the property to which the order relates.

3 Where subsection (1) applies and no person claiming under the company as underlessee or mortgagee is willing to accept an order under section 181 on the terms required by virtue of that subsection, the court may, by order under that section, vest the company’s estate or interest in the property in any person who is liable (whether personally or in a representative capacity, and whether alone or jointly with the company) to perform the lessee’s covenants in the lease.The court may vest that estate and interest in such a person freed and discharged from all estates, incumbrances and interests created by the company.

4 Where subsection (1) applies and a person claiming under the company as underlessee or mortgagee declines to accept an order under section 181, that person is excluded from all interest in the property.

Execution, attachment and the Scottish equivalents¶

^C230^C1305^C1319183 ^C1305 Effect of execution or attachment (England and Wales).¶

1 Where a creditor has issued execution against the goods or land of a company or has attached any debt due to it, and the company is subsequently wound up, he is not entitled to retain the beneift of the execution or attachment against the liquidator unless he has completed the execution or attachment before the commencement of the winding up.

2 However—

a if a creditor has had notice of a meeting having been called at which a resolution for voluntary winding up is to be proposed, the date on which he had notice is substituted, for the purpose of subsection (1), for the date of commencement of the winding up;

b a person who purchases in good faith under a sale by the enforcement officer or other officer charged with the execution of the writ any goods of a company on which execution has been levied in all cases acquires a good title to them against the liquidator; and

c the rights conferred by subsection (1) on the liquidator may be set aside by the court in favour of the creditor to such extent and subject to such terms as the court thinks fit.

3 For purposes of this Act—

a an execution against goods is completed by seizure and sale, or by making of a charging order under section 1 of the ^M10Charging Orders Act 1979;

b an attachment of a debt is completed by receipt of the debt; and

c an execution against land is completed by seizure, by the appointment of a receiver, or by the making of a charging order under section 1 of the Act above-mentioned.

4 In this section “goods” includes all chattels personal; and “enforcement officer” means an individual who is authorised to act as an enforcement officer under the Courts Act2003.

4A For the purposes of this section, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs is to be regarded as having attached a debt due to a company if it has taken action under Part 1 of Schedule 8 to the Finance (No. 2) Act 2015 (enforcement by deduction for accounts) as a result of which an amount standing to the credit of an account held by the company is—

a subject to arrangements made under paragraph 6(3) of that Schedule, or

b the subject of a deduction notice under paragraph 13 of that Schedule.

5 This section does not apply in the case of a winding up in Scotland.

^C231^C1305^C1320184 ^C1305 Duties of officers charged with execution of writs and other processes (England and Wales).¶

1 The following applies where a company’s goods are taken in execution and, before their sale or the completion of the execution (by the receipt or recovery of the full amount of the levy), notice is served on the enforcement officer, or other officer, charged with execution of the writ or other process, that a provisional liquidator has been appointed or that a winding-up order has been made, or that a resolution for voluntary winding up has been passed.

2 The enforcement officer or other officer shall, on being so required, deliver the goods and any money seized or received in part satisfaction of the execution to the liquidator; but the costs of execution are a first charge on the goods or money so delivered, and the liquidator may sell the goods, or a sufficient part of them for the purpose of satisfying the charge.

3 If under an execution in respect of a judgement for a sum exceeding £500 a company’s goods are sold or money is paid in order to avoid sale, the enforcement officer or other officer shall deduct the costs of the execution from the proceeds of sale or the money paid and retain the balance for 14 days.

4 If within that time notice is served on the enforcement officer or other officer of a petition for the winding up of the company having been presented, or of a meeting having been called at which there is to be proposed a resolution for voluntary winding up, and an order is made or a resolution passed (as the case may be), the enforcement officer or other officer shall pay the balance to the liquidator, who is entitled to retain it as against the execution creditor.

5 The rights conferred by this section on the liquidator may be set aside by the court in favour of the creditor to such extent and subject to such terms as the court thinks fit.

6 In this section, “goods” includes all chattels personal; and “enforcement officer” means an individual who is authorised to act as an enforcement officer under the Courts Act 2003.

7 The money sum for the time being specified in subsection (3) is subject to increase or reduction by order under section 416 in Part XV.

8 This section does not apply in the case of a winding up in Scotland.

^C232^C233^C1305^C1321^C1468185 ^C1305 Effect of diligence (Scotland)¶

1 In the winding up of a company registered in Scotland, the following provisions of the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 2016—

^C1034a subsections (3) to (10) of section 23A (effect of sequestration on land attachment) and section 24 (effect of sequestration on diligence generally); and

b subsections (6), (7), (10) and (11) of section 109 (management and realisation of estate),

apply so far as consistent with this Act, in like manner as they apply in the sequestration of a debtor’s estate, with the substitutions specified below and with any other necessary modifications.

^C10342 The substitutions to be made in those sections of the Act of 2016 are as follows—

a for references to the debtor, substitute references to the company;

b for references to the sequestration, substitute references to the winding up;

c for references to the date of sequestration, substitute references to the commencement of the winding up of the company; and

d for references to the permanent trustee, substitute references to the liquidator.

3 In this section, “the commencement of the winding up of the company” means, where it is being wound up by the court, the day on which the winding-up order is made.

4 This section, so far as relating to any estate or effects of the company situated in Scotland, applies in the case of a company registered in England and Wales as in the case of one registered in Scotland.

5 The power of a contributory to make an application under subsection (3) is not exercisable except with the leave of the court, but is exercisable notwithstanding that he will not benefit from any order the court may make on the application.

^C281^C282^C931^C1073^C1305^C1336^C1470213 ^C1305 Fraudulent trading.¶

1 If in the course of the winding up of a company it appears that any business of the company has been carried on with intent to defraud creditors of the company or creditors of any other person, or for any fraudulent purpose, the following has effect.

2 The court, on the application of the liquidator may declare that any persons who were knowingly parties to the carrying on of the business in the manner above-mentioned are to be liable to make such contributions (if any) to the company’s assets as the court thinks proper.

^C283^C284^C285^C286^C287^C932^C990^C1059^C1060^C1280^C1305^C1337^C1470^C1541214 ^C1305 Wrongful trading.¶

1 Subject to subsection (3) below, if in the course of the winding up of a company it appears that subsection (2) of this section applies in relation to a person who is or has been a director of the company, the court, on the application of the liquidator, may declare that that person is to be liable to make such contribution (if any) to the company’s assets as the court thinks proper.

^C2882 This subsection applies in relation to a person if—

a the company has gone into insolvent liquidation,

b at some time before the commencement of the winding up of the company, that person knew or ought to have concluded that there was no reasonable prospect that the company would avoid going into insolvent liquidation or entering insolvent administration, and

c that person was a director of the company at that time;

but the court shall not make a declaration under this section in any case where the time mentioned in paragraph (b) above was before 28th April 1986.

3 The court shall not make a declaration under this section with respect to any person if it is satisfied that after the condition specified in subsection (2)(b) was first satisfied in relation to him that person took every step with a view to minimising the potential loss to the company’s creditors as (on the assumption that he had knowledge of the matter mentioned in subsection (2)(b)) he ought to have taken.

^C2894 For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), the facts which a director of a company ought to know or ascertain, the conclusions which he ought to reach and the steps which he ought to take are those which would be known or ascertained, or reached or taken, by a reasonably diligent person having both—

a the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company, and

b the general knowledge, skill and experience that that director has.

5 The reference in subsection (4) to the functions carried out in relation to a company by a director of the company includes any functions which he does not carry out but which have been entrusted to him.

6 For the purposes of this section a company goes into insolvent liquidation if it goes into liquidation at a time when its assets are insufficient for the payment of its debts and other liabilities and the expenses of the winding up.

6A For the purposes of this section a company enters insolvent administration if it enters administration at a time when its assets are insufficient for the payment of its debts and other liabilities and the expenses of the administration.

7 In this section “director” includes a shadow director.

8 This section is without prejudice to section 213.

^C290^C291^C292^C293^C933^C1305^C1338^C1470215 ^C1305 Proceedings under ss. 213, 214.¶

^C2941 On the hearing of an application under section 213 or 214, the liquidator may himself give evidence or call witnesses.

^C2942 Where under either section the court makes a declaration, it may give such further directions as it thinks proper for giving effect to the declaration; and in particular, the court may—

a provide for the liability of any person under the declaration to be a charge on any debt or obligation due from the company to him, or on any mortgage or charge or any interest in a mortgage or charge on assets of the company held by or vested in him, or any person on his behalf, or any person claiming as assignee from or through the person liable or any person acting on his behalf, and

b from time to time make such further order as may be necessary for enforcing any charge imposed under this subsection.

3 For the purposes of subsection (2), “assignee”—

a includes a person to whom or in whose favour, by the directions of the person made liable, the debt, obligation, mortgage or charge was created, issued or transferred or the interest created, but

b does not include an assignee for valuable consideration (not including consideration by way of marriage or the formation of a civil partnership) given in good faith and without notice of any of the matters on the ground of which the declaration is made.

^C2944 Where the court makes a declaration under either section in relation to a person who is a creditor of the company, it may direct that the whole or any part of any debt owed by the company to that person and any interest thereon shall rank in priority after all other debts owed by the company and after any interest on those debts.

^C2945 Sections 213 and 214 have effect notwithstanding that the person concerned may be criminally liable in respect of matters on the ground of which the declaration under the section is to be made.

^C295^C1305^C1339216 ^C1305 Restriction on re-use of company names.¶

1 This section applies to a person where a company (“the liquidating company”) has gone into insolvent liquidation on or after the appointed day and he was a director or shadow director of the company at any time in the period of 12 months ending with the day before it went into liquidation.

2 For the purposes of this section, a name is a prohibited name in relation to such a person if—

a it is a name by which the liquidating company was known at any time in that period of 12 months, or

b it is a name which is so similar to a name falling within paragraph (a) as to suggest an association with that company.

3 Except with leave of the court or in such circumstances as may be prescribed, a person to whom this section applies shall not at any time in the period of 5 years beginning with the day on which the liquidating company went into liquidation—

a be a director of any other company that is known by a prohibited name, or

b in any way, whether directly or indirectly, be concerned or take part in the promotion, formation or management of any such company, or

^C296^C1305^C1340217 ^C1305 Personal liability for debts, following contravention of s. 216.¶

b as a person who is involved in the management of the company, he acts or is willing to act on instructions given (without the leave of the court) by a person whom he knows at that time to be in contravention in relation to the company of section 216.

2 Where a person is personally responsible under this section for the relevant debts of a company, he is jointly and severally liable in respect of those debts with the company and any other person who, whether under this section or otherwise, is so liable.

Investigation and prosecution of malpractice¶

^C297^C864^C934^C1185^C1305^C1341^C1498218 ^C1305 Prosecution of delinquent officers and members of company.¶

^C298^C2991 If it appears to the court in the course of a winding up by the court that any past or present officer, or any member, of the company has been guilty of any offence in relation to the company for which he is criminally liable, the court may (either on the application of a person interested in the winding up or of its own motion) direct the liquidator to refer the matter

a in the case of a winding up in England and Wales, to the Secretary of State, and

b in the case of a winding up in Scotland, to the Lord Advocate

^F1812 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3 If in the case of a winding up by the court in England and Wales it appears to the liquidator, not being the official receiver, that any past or present officer of the company, or any member of it, has been guilty of an offence in relation to the company for which he is criminally liable, the liquidator shall report the matter to the official receiver.

^C298^C2994 If it appears to the liquidator in the course of a voluntary winding up that any past or present officer of the company, or any member of it, has been guilty of an offence in relation to the company for which he is criminally liable, he shall forthwith report the matter—

a in the case of a winding up in England and Wales, to the Secretary of State, and

b in the case of a winding up in Scotland, to the Lord Advocate,

and shall furnish to the Secretary of State or (as the case may be) the Lord Advocate such information and give to him such access to and facilities for inspecting and taking copies of documents (being information or documents in the possession or under the control of the liquidator and relating to the matter in question) as the Secretary of State or (as the case may be) the Lord Advocate requires.

5 Where a report is made to the Secretary of State under subsection (4) he may, for the purpose of investigating the matter reported to him and such other matters relating to the affairs of the company as appear to him to require investigation, exercise any of the powers which are exercisable by inspectors appointed under section 431 or 432 of the the Companies Act 1985 to investigate a company’s affairs.

^C298^C2996 If it appears to the court in the course of a voluntary winding up that—

a any past or present officer of the company, or any member of it, has been guilty as above-mentioned, and

b no report with respect to the matter has been made by the liquidator ^F186. . . under subsection (4),

the court may (on the application of any person interested in the winding up or of its own motion) direct the liquidator to make such a report.

On a report being made accordingly, this section has effect as though the report had been made in pursuance of subsection (4).

^C300^C865^C935^C1342^C1305219 ^C1305 Obligations arising under s. 218.¶

1 For the purpose of an investigation by the Secretary of State in consequence of a report made to him under section 218(4), any obligation imposed on a person by any provision of the Companies Act 1985 to produce documents or give information to, or otherwise to assist, inspectors appointed as mentioned in section 218(5) is to be regarded as an obligation similarly to assist the Secretary of State in his investigation.

2 An answer given by a person to a question put to him in exercise of the powers conferred by section 218(5) may be used in evidence against him.

2A However, in criminal proceedings in which that person is charged with an offence to which this subsection applies—

a no evidence relating to the answer may be adduced, and

b no question relating to it may be asked,

by or on behalf of the prosecution, unless evidence relating to it is adduced, or a question relating to it is asked, in the proceedings by or on behalf of that person.

2B Subsection (2A) applies to any offence other than—

a an offence under section 2 or 5 of the ^M12Perjury Act 1911 (false statements made on oath otherwise than in judicial proceedings or made otherwise than on oath), or

b an offence under section 44(1) or (2) of the ^M13Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995 (false statements made on oath or otherwise than on oath).

3 Where criminal proceedings are instituted by the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Lord Advocate or the Secretary of State following any report or reference under section 218, it is the duty of the liquidator and every officer and agent of the company past and present (other than the defendant or defender) to give to the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Lord Advocate or the Secretary of State (as the case may be) all assistance in connection with the prosecution which he is reasonably able to give.For this purpose “agent” includes any banker or solicitor of the company and any person employed by the company as auditor, whether that person is or is not an officer of the company.

4 If a person fails or neglects to give assistance in the manner required by subsection (3), the court may, on the application of the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Lord Advocate or the Secretary of State (as the case may be) direct the person to comply with that subsection; and if the application is made with respect to a liquidator, the court may (unless it appears that the failure or neglect to comply was due to the liquidator not having in his hands sufficient assets of the company to enable him to do so) direct that the costs shall be borne by the liquidator personally.

^C326^C327^C328^C329^C330^C331^C332 Part V Winding Up of Unregistered Companies¶

^C936^C308^C309220 Meaning of “unregistered company”.¶

For the purposes of this Part “unregistered company” includes any association and any company, with the exception of a company registered under the Companies Act 2006 in any part of the United Kingdom.

^C310^C311^C937221 Winding up of unregistered companies.¶

^C3121 Subject to the provisions of this Part, any unregistered company may be wound up under this Act; and all the provisions of this Act ^F193. . . about winding up apply to an unregistered company with the exceptions and additions mentioned in the following subsections.

2 If an unregistered company has a principal place of business situated in Northern Ireland, it shall not be wound up under this Part unless it has a principal place of business situated in England and Wales or Scotland, or in both England and Wales and Scotland.

3 For the purpose of determining a court’s winding-up jurisdiction, an unregistered company is deemed—

a to be registered in England and Wales or Scotland, according as its principal place of business is situated in England and Wales or Scotland, or

b if it has a principal place of business situated in both countries, to be registered in both countries;

and the principal place of business situated in that part of Great Britain in which proceedings are being instituted is, for all purposes of the winding up, deemed to be the registered office of the company.

4 No unregistered company shall be wound up under this Act voluntarily , except in accordance with the EU Regulation .

5 The circumstances in which an unregistered company may be wound up are as follows—

a if the company is dissolved, or has ceased to carry on business, or is carrying on business only for the purpose of winding up its affairs;

^C313^C314^C1207b if the company is unable to pay its debts;

c if the court is of opinion that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up.

6 A petition for winding up a trustee savings bank may be presented by the Trustee Savings Banks Central Board or by a commissioner appointed under section 35 of the ^M14Trustee Savings Banks Act 1981 as well as by any person authorised under Part IV of this Act to present a petition for the winding up of a company.On such day as the Treasury appoints by order under section 4(3) of the ^M15Trustee Savings Banks Act 1985, this subsection ceases to have effect and is hereby repealed.

7 In Scotland, an unregistered company which the Court of Session has jurisdiction to wind up may be wound up by the court if there is subsisting a floating charge over property comprised in the company’s property and undertaking, and the court is satisfied that the security of the creditor entitled to the benefit of the floating charge is in jeopardy.For this purpose a creditor’s security is deemed to be in jeopardy if the court is satisfied that events have occurred or are about to occur which render it unreasonable in the creditor’s interests that the company should retain power to dispose of the property which is subject to the floating charge.

^C315^C938222 Inability to pay debts: unpaid creditor for £750 or more.¶

1 An unregistered company is deemed (for the purposes of section 221) unable to pay its debts if there is a creditor, by assignment or otherwise, to whom the company is indebted in a sum exceeding £750 then due and—

a the creditor has served on the company, by leaving at its principal place of business, or by delivering to the secretary or some director, manager or principal officer of the company, or by otherwise serving in such manner as the court may approve or direct, a written demand in the prescribed form requiring the company to pay the sum due, and

b the company has for 3 weeks after the service of the demand neglected to pay the sum or to secure or compound for it to the creditor’s satisfaction.

2 The money sum for the time being specified in subsection (1) is subject to increase or reduction by regulations under section 417 in Part XV; but no increase in the sum so specified affects any case in which the winding-up petition was presented before the coming into force of the increase.

^C316223 Inability to pay debts: debt remaining unsatisfed after action brought.¶

An unregistered company is deemed (for the purposes of section 221) unable to pay its debts if an action or other proceeding has been instituted against any member for any debt or demand due, or claimed to be due, from the company, or from him in his character of member, and—

a notice in writing of the institution of the action or proceeding has been served on the company by leaving it at the company’s principal place of business (or by delivering it to the secretary, or some director, manager or principal officer of the company, or by otherwise serving it in such manner as the court may approve or direct), and

b the company has not within 3 weeks after service of the notice paid, secured or compounded for the debt or demand, or procured the action or proceeding to be stayed or sisted, or indemnified the defendant or defender to his reasonable satisfaction against the action or proceeding, and against all costs, damages and expenses to be incurred by him because of it.

^C317^C939224 Inability to pay debts: other cases.¶

1 An unregistered company is deemed (for purposes of section 221) unable to pay its debts—

a if in England and Wales execution or other process issued on a judgment, decree or order obtained in any court in favour of a creditor against the company, or any member of it as such, or any person authorised to be sued as nominal defendant on behalf of the company, is returned unsatisfied;

b if in Scotland the induciae of a charge for payment on an extract decree, or an extract registered bond, or an extract registered protest, have expired without payment being made;

c if in Northern Ireland a certificate of unenforceability has been granted in respect of any judgment, decree or order obtained as mentioned in paragraph (a);

d if it is otherwise proved to the satisfaction of the court that the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due.

2 An unregistered company is also deemed unable to pay its debts if it is proved to the satisfaction of the court that the value of the company’s assets is less than the amount of its liabilities, taking into account its contingent and prospective liabilities.

^C318225 Company incorporated outside Great Britain may be wound up though dissolved.¶

1 Where a company incorporated outside Great Britain which has been carrying on business in Great Britain ceases to carry on business in Great Britain, it may be wound up as an unregistered company under this Act, notwithstanding that it has been dissolved or otherwise ceased to exist as a company under or by virtue of the laws of the country under which it was incorporated.

^F15512 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C319^C320226 Contributories in winding up of unregistered company.¶

1 In the event of an unregistered company being wound up, every person is deemed a contributory who is liable to pay or contribute to the payment of any debt or liability of the company, or to pay or contribute to the payment of any sum for the adjustment of the rights of members among themselves, or to pay or contribute to the payment of the expenses of winding up the company.

2 Every contributory is liable to contribute to the company’s assets all sums due from him in respect of any such liability as is mentioned above.

3 In the case of an unregistered company engaged in or formed for working mines within the stannaries, a past member is not liable to contribute to the assets if he has ceased to be a member for 2 years or more either before the mine ceased to be worked or before the date of the winding-up order.

^C321^C322227 Power of court to stay, sist or restrain proceedings.¶

The provisions of this Part with respect to staying, sisting or restraining actions and proceedings against a company at any time after the presentation of a petition for winding up and before the making of a winding-up order extend, in the case of an unregistered company, where the application to stay, sist or restrain is presented by a creditor, to actions and proceedings against any contributory of the company.

^C323^C324228 Actions stayed on winding-up order.¶

Where an order has been made for winding up an unregistered company, no action or proceding shall be proceeded with or commenced against any contributory of the company in respect of any debt of the company, except by leave of the court, and subject to such terms as the court may impose.

^C325^C940229 Provisions of this Part to be cumulative.¶

1 The provisions of this Part with respect to unregistered companies are in addition to and not in restriction of any provisions in Part IV with respect to winding up companies by the court; and the court or liquidator may exercise any powers or do any act in the case of unregistered companies which might be exercised or done by it or him in winding up companies registered under the Companies Act 2006 in England and Wales or Scotland.

c any charges in respect of the supply that are incurred after the company entered administration or the voluntary arrangement took effect are not paid within the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which payment is due.

The court may grant permission under paragraph (b) only if satisfied that the continuation of the contract would cause the supplier hardship.

5 The condition in this subsection is that—

a the supplier gives written notice to the insolvency office-holder that the supply will be terminated unless the office-holder personally guarantees the payment of any charges in respect of the continuation of the supply after the company entered administration or the voluntary arrangement took effect, and

b the insolvency office-holder does not give that guarantee within the period of 14 days beginning with the day the notice is received.

6 For the purposes of securing that the interests of suppliers are protected, where—

a an insolvency-related term of a contract (the “original term”) ceases to have effect by virtue of subsection (1), and

b the company subsequently enters administration, or a voluntary arrangement subsequently has effect in relation to it,

the contract is treated for the purposes of subsections (1) to (5) as if, immediately before the subsequent administration is entered into or the subsequent voluntary arrangement takes effect, it included an insolvency-related term identical to the original term.

7 A contract for the supply of essential goods or services is a contract for a supply mentioned in section 233(3).

8 An insolvency-related term of a contract for the supply of essential goods or services to a company is a provision of the contract under which—

a the contract or the supply would terminate, or any other thing would take place, because the company enters administration or the voluntary arrangement takes effect,

b the supplier would be entitled to terminate the contract or the supply, or to do any other thing, because the company enters administration or the voluntary arrangement takes effect, or

c the supplier would be entitled to terminate the contract or the supply because of an event that occurred before the company enters administration or the voluntary arrangement takes effect.

9 In this section “insolvency office-holder” means—

a in a case where a company enters administration, the administrator;

b in a case where a voluntary arrangement under Part 1 takes effect in relation to a company, the supervisor of the voluntary arrangement.

10 Subsection (1) does not have effect in relation to a contract entered into before 1st October 2015.

3 A provision of a contract for the supply of goods or services to the company ceases to have effect when the company becomes subject to the relevant insolvency procedure if and to the extent that, under the provision—

a the contract or the supply would terminate, or any other thing would take place, because the company becomes subject to the relevant insolvency procedure, or

b the supplier would be entitled to terminate the contract or the supply, or to do any other thing, because the company becomes subject to the relevant insolvency procedure.

4 Where—

a under a provision of a contract for the supply of goods or services to the company the supplier is entitled to terminate the contract or the supply because of an event occurring before the start of the insolvency period, and

b the entitlement arises before the start of that period,

the entitlement may not be exercised during that period.

5 Where a provision of a contract ceases to have effect under subsection (3) or an entitlement under a provision of a contract is not exercisable under subsection (4), the supplier may terminate the contract if—

a in a case where the company has become subject to a relevant insolvency procedure as specified in subsection (2)(b), (c), (e) or (f), the office-holder consents to the termination of the contract,

b in any other case, the company consents to the termination of the contract, or

c the court is satisfied that the continuation of the contract would cause the supplier hardship and grants permission for the termination of the contract.

6 Where a provision of a contract ceases to have effect under subsection (3) and the company becomes subject to a further relevant insolvency procedure, the supplier may terminate the contract in accordance with subsection (5)(a) to (c).

7 The supplier shall not make it a condition of any supply of goods and services after the time when the company becomes subject to the relevant insolvency procedure, or do anything which has the effect of making it a condition of such a supply, that any outstanding charges in respect of a supply made to the company before that time are paid.

d in the case of a voluntary arrangement approved under Part 1 taking effect in relation to the company, when the arrangement ceases to have effect,

e in the case of the company going into liquidation, when—

i the liquidator complies with section 94(2), 106(2) or 146(3) (duties relating to final account), or

ii the appointment of the liquidator ceases to have effect under an order under section 901F of the Companies Act 2006,

f in the case of the appointment of a provisional liquidator for the company, when the provisional liquidator or any successor to the provisional liquidator ceases to hold office without a successor being appointed, and

g in the case of the making of a court order under section 901C(1) of the Companies Act 2006 in relation to the company, when—

i an order made by the court under section 901F of that Act takes effect, or

ii the court decides not to make such an order.

9 In this section “office-holder”, in relation to a company which has entered into an insolvency procedure as specified in subsection (2)(b), (c), (e) or (f), means the administrator, administrative receiver, liquidator or provisional liquidator respectively.

1 This section applies in the case of a company where—

a the company enters administration,

b an administrative receiver is appointed, or

c the company goes into liquidation, or

d a provisional liquidator is appointed;

and “the office-holder” means the administrator, the administrative receiver, the liquidator or the provisional liquidator, as the case may be.

2 Where any person has in his possession or control any property, books, papers or records to which the company appears to be entitled, the court may require that person forthwith (or within such period as the court may direct) to pay, deliver, convey, surrender or transfer the property, books, papers or records to the office-holder.

3 Where the office-holder—

a seizes or disposes of any property which is not property of the company, and

b at the time of seizure or disposal believes, and has reasonable grounds for believing, that he is entitled (whether in pursuance of an order of the court or otherwise) to seize or dispose of that property,

the next subsection has effect.

4 In that case the office-holder—

a is not liable to any person in respect of any loss or damage resulting from the seizure or disposal except in so far as that loss or damage is caused by the office-holder’s own negligence, and

b has a lien on the property, or the proceeds of its sale, for such expenses as were incurred in connection with the seizure or disposal.

1 This section applies as does section 234; and it also applies, in the case of a company in respect of which a winding-up order has been made by the court in England and Wales, as if references to the office-holder included the official receiver, whether or not he is the liquidator.

2 Each of the persons mentioned in the next subsection shall—

a give to the office-holder such information concerning the company and its promotion, formation, business, dealings, affairs or property as the office-holder may at any time after the effective date reasonably require, and

b attend on the office-holder at such times as the latter may reasonably require.

3 The persons referred to above are—

a those who are or have at any time been officers of the company,

b those who have taken part in the formation of the company at any time within one year before the effective date,

c those who are in the employment of the company, or have been in its employment (including employment under a contract for services) within that year, and are in the office-holder’s opinion capable of giving information which he requires,

d those who are, or have within that year been, officers of, or in the employment (including employment under a contract for services) of, another company which is, or within that year was, an officer of the company in question, and

e in the case of a company being wound up by the court, any person who has acted as administrator, administrative receiver or liquidator of the company.

4 For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), “the effective date” is whichever is applicable of the following dates—

a the date on which the company entered administration,

b the date on which the administrative receiver was appointed or, if he was appointed in succession to another administrative receiver, the date on which the first of his predecessors was appointed,

1 This section applies as does section 234; and it also applies in the case of a company in respect of which a winding-up order has been made by the court in England and Wales as if references to the office-holder included the official receiver, whether or not he is the liquidator.

2 The court may, on the application of the office-holder, summon to appear before it—

a any officer of the company,

b any person known or suspected to have in his possession any property of the company or supposed to be indebted to the company, or

c any person whom the court thinks capable of giving information concerning the promotion, formation, business, dealings, affairs or property of the company.

3 The court may require any such person as is mentioned in subsection (2)(a) to (c) to submit to the court an account of his dealings with the company or to produce any books, papers or other records in his possession or under his control relating to the company or the matters mentioned in paragraph (c) of the subsection.

3A An account submitted to the court under subsection (3) must be contained in—

a a witness statement verified by a statement of truth (in England and Wales), and

b an affidavit (in Scotland).

4 The following applies in a case where—

a a person without reasonable excuse fails to appear before the court when he is summoned to do so under this section, or

b there are reasonable grounds for believing that a person has absconded, or is about to abscond, with a view to avoiding his appearance before the court under this section.

5 The court may, for the purpose of bringing that person and anything in his possession before the court, cause a warrant to be issued to a constable or prescribed officer of the court—

a for the arrest of that person, and

b for the seizure of any books, papers, records, money or goods in that person’s possession.

6 The court may authorise a person arrested under such a warrant to be kept in custody, and anything seized under such a warrant to be held, in accordance with the rules, until that person is brought before the court under the warrant or until such other time as the court may order.

1 If it appears to the court, on consideration of any evidence obtained under section 236 or this section, that any person has in his possession any property of the company, the court may, on the application of the office-holder, order that person to deliver the whole or any part of the property to the office-holder at such time, in such manner and on such terms as the court thinks fit.

2 If it appears to the court, on consideration of any evidence so obtained, that any person is indebted to the company, the court may, on the application of the office-holder, order that person to pay to the office holder,at such time and in such manner as the court may direct, the whole or any part of the amount due, whether in full discharge of the debt or otherwise, as the court thinks fit.the court may, if it thinks fit, order that any person who if within the jurisdiction of the court would be liable to be summoned to appear before it under section 236 or this section shall be examined in any part of the United Kingdom where he may for the time being be, or in a place outside the United Kingdom.

4 Any person who appears or is brought before the court under section 236 or this section may be examined on oath, either orally or (except in Scotland) by interrogatories, concerning the company or the matters mentioned in section 236(2)(c).

Adjustment of prior transactions (administration and liquidation)¶

1 This section applies in the case of a company where—

a the company enters administration,

b the company goes into liquidation;

and “the office-holder” means the administrator or the liquidator, as the case may be.

2 Where the company has at a relevant time (defined in section 240) entered into a transaction with any person at an undervalue, the office-holder may apply to the court for an order under this section.

3 Subject as follows, the court shall, on such an application, make such order as it thinks fit for restoring the position to what it would have been if the company had not entered into that transaction.

4 For the purposes of this section and section 241, a company enters into a transaction with a person at an undervalue if—

a the company makes a gift to that person or otherwise enters into a transaction with that person on terms that provide for the company to receive no consideration, or

b the company enters into a transaction with that person for a consideration the value of which, in money or money’s worth, is significantly less than the value, in money or money’s worth, of the consideration provided by the company.

5 The court shall not make an order under this section in respect of a transaction at an undervalue if it is satisfied—

a that the company which entered into the transaction did so in good faith and for the purpose of carrying on its business, and

b that at the time it did so there were reasonable grounds for believing that the transaction would benefit the company.

^C361^C362^C363^C364^C365^C949^C1132^C1135^C1350^C1435^C1528239 ^C1435 Preferences (England and Wales).¶

1 This section applies as does section 238.

2 Where the company has at a relevant time (defined in the next section) given a preference to any person, the office-holder may apply to the court for an order under this section.

3 Subject as follows, the court shall, on such an application, make such order as it thinks fit for restoring the position to what it would have been if the company had not given that preference.

4 For the purposes of this section and section 241, a company gives a preference to a person if—

a that person is one of the company’s creditors or a surety or guarantor for any of the company’s debts or other liabilities, and

b the company does anything or suffers anything to be done which (in either case) has the effect of putting that person into a position which, in the event of the company going into insolvent liquidation, will be better than the position he would have been in if that thing had not been done.

5 The court shall not make an order under this section in respect of a preference given to any person unless the company which gave the preference was influenced in deciding to give it by a desire to produce in relation to that person the effect mentioned in subsection (4)(b).

6 A company which has given a preference to a person connected with the company (otherwise than by reason only of being its employee) at the time the preference was given is presumed, unless the contrary is shown, to have been influenced in deciding to give it by such a desire as is mentioned in subsection (5).

7 The fact that something has been done in pursuance of the order of a court does not, without more, prevent the doing or suffering of that thing from constituting the giving of a preference.

^C366^C367^C368^C950^C1132^C1135^C1214^C1351^C1435^C1528240 ^C1435“Relevant time” under ss. 238, 239.¶

1 Subject to the next subsection, the time at which a company enters into a transaction at an undervalue or gives a preference is a relevant time if the transaction is entered into, or the preference given—

a in the case of a transaction at an undervalue or of a preference which is given to a person who is connected with the company (otherwise than by reason only of being its employee), at a time in the period of 2 years ending with the onset of insolvency (which expression is defined below),

b in the case of a preference which is not such a transaction and is not so given, at a time in the period of 6 months ending with the onset of insolvency,^F221. . .

c in either case, at a time between the making of an administration application in respect of the company and the making of an administration order on that application, and

d in either case, at a time between the filing with the court of a copy of notice of intention to appoint an administrator under paragraph 14 or 22 of Schedule B1 and the making of an appointment under that paragraph.

2 Where a company enters into a transaction at an undervalue or gives a preference at a time mentioned in subsection (1)(a) or (b), that time is not a relevant time for the purposes of section 238 or 239 unless the company—

a is at that time unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 123 in Chapter VI of Part IV, or

b becomes unable to pay its debts within the meaning of that section in consequence of the transaction or preference;

but the requirements of this subsection are presumed to be satisfied, unless the contrary is shown, in relation to any transaction at an undervalue which is entered into by a company with a person who is connected with the company.

3 For the purposes of subsection (1), the onset of insolvency is—

a in a case where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of an administrator of a company being appointed by administration order, the date on which the administration application is made,

b in a case where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of an administrator of a company being appointed under paragraph 14 or 22 of Schedule B1 following filing with the court of a copy of a notice of intention to appoint under that paragraph, the date on which the copy of the notice is filed,

c in a case where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of an administrator of a company being appointed otherwise than as mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b), the date on which the appointment takes effect,

d in a case where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of a company going into liquidation ^F1552... at the time when the appointment of an administrator ceases to have effect, the date on which the company entered administration (or, if relevant, the date on which the application for the administration order was made or a copy of the notice of intention to appoint was filed), and

e in a case where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of a company going into liquidation at any other time, the date of the commencement of the winding up.

^C369^C370^C371^C951^C1132^C1135^C1352^C1435^C1528241 ^C1435 Orders under ss. 238, 239.¶

1 Without prejudice to the generality of sections 238(3) and 239(3), an order under either of those sections with respect to a transaction or preference entered into or given by a company may (subject to the next subsection)—

a require any property transferred as part of the transaction, or in connection with the giving of the preference, to be vested in the company,

b require any property to be so vested if it represents in any person’s hands the application either of the proceeds of sale of property so transferred or of money so transferred,

c release or discharge (in whole or in part) any security given by the company,

d require any person to pay, in respect of benefits received by him from the company, such sums to the office-holder as the court may direct,

e provide for any surety or guarantor whose obligations to any person were released or discharged (in whole or in part) under the transaction, or by the giving of the preference, to be under such new or revived obligations to that person as the court thinks appropriate,

f provide for security to be provided for the discharge of any obligation imposed by or arising under the order, for such an obligation to be charged on any property and for the security or charge to have the same priority as a security or charge released or discharged (in whole or in part) under the transaction or by the giving of the preference, and

g provide for the extent to which any person whose property is vested by the order in the company, or on whom obligations are imposed by the order, is to be able to prove in the winding up of the company for debts or other liabilities which arose from, or were released or discharged (in whole or in part) under or by, the transaction or the giving of the preference.

2 An order under section 238 or 239 may affect the property of, or impose any obligation on, any person whether or not he is the person with whom the company in question entered into the transaction or (as the case may be) the person to whom the preference was given; but such an order—

a shall not prejudice any interest in property which was acquired from a person other than the company and was acquired in good faith and for value, or prejudice any interest deriving from such an interest, and

b shall not require a person who received a benefit from the transaction or preference in good faith and for value to pay a sum to the office-holder, except where that person was a party to the transaction or the payment is to be in respect of a preference given to that person at a time when he was a creditor of the company.

^F2252A Where a person has acquired an interest in property from a person other than the company in question, or has received a benefit from the transaction or preference, and at the time of that acquisition or receipt—

a he had notice of the relevant surrounding circumstances and of the relevant proceedings, or

b he was connected with, or was an associate of, either the company in question or the person with whom that company entered into the transaction or to whom that company gave the preference,

then, unless the contrary is shown, it shall be presumed for the purposes of paragraph (a) or (as the case may be) paragraph (b) of subsection (2) that the interest was acquired or the benefit was received otherwise than in good faith.

3 For the purposes of subsection (2A)(a), the relevant surrounding circumstances are (as the case may require)—

a the fact that the company in question entered into the transaction at an undervalue; or

b the circumstances which amounted to the giving of the preference by the company in question;

and subsections (3A) to (3C) have effect to determine whether, for those purposes, a person has notice of the relevant proceedings.

3A Where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of a company’s entering administration, a person has notice of the relevant proceedings if he has notice that—

a an administration application has been made,

b an administration order has been made,

c a copy of a notice of intention to appoint an administrator under paragraph 14 or 22 of Schedule B1 has been filed, or

d notice of the appointment of an administrator has been filed under paragraph 18 or 29 of that Schedule.

3B Where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of a company’s going into liquidation at the time when the appointment of an administrator of the company ceases to have effect, a person has notice of the relevant proceedings if he has notice that—

a an administration application has been made,

b an administration order has been made,

c a copy of a notice of intention to appoint an administrator under paragraph 14 or 22 of Schedule B1 has been filed,

d notice of the appointment of an administrator has been filed under paragraph 18 or 29 of that Schedule, or

e the company has gone into liquidation.

3C In a case where section 238 or 239 applies by reason of the company in question going into liquidation at any other time, a person has notice of the relevant proceedings if he has notice—

a where the company goes into liquidation on the making of a winding-up order, of the fact that the petition on which the winding-up order is made has been presented or of the fact that the company has gone into liquidation;

b in any other case, of the fact that the company has gone into liquidation.

4 The provisions of sections 238 to 241 apply without prejudice to the availability of any other remedy, even in relation to a transaction or preference which the company had no power to enter into or give.

1 Where this subsection applies and—

a the winding up of a company has commenced, an alienation by the company is challengeable by—

i any creditor who is a creditor by virtue of a debt incurred on or before the date of such commencement, or

ii the liquidator;

b a company enters administration, an alienation by the company is challengeable by the administrator.

2 Subsection (1) applies where—

a by the alienation, whether before or after 1st April 1986 (the coming into force of section75 of the ^M16Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 1985), any part of the company’s property is transferred or any claim or right of the company is discharged or renounced, and

b the alienation takes place on a relevant day.

3 For the purposes of subsection (2)(b), the day on which an alienation takes place is the day on which it becomes completely effectual; and in that subsection “relevant day” means, if the alienation has the effect of favouring—

a a person who is an associate (within the meaning of the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 2016) of the company, a day not earlier than 5 years before the date on which—

i the winding up of the company commences, or

ii as the case may be, the company enters administration; or

b any other person, a day not earlier than 2 years before that date.

4 On a challenge being brought under subsection (1), the court shall grant decree of reduction or for such restoration of property to the company’s assets or other redress as may be appropriate; but the court shall not grant such a decree if the person seeking to uphold the alienation establishes—

a that immediately, or at any other time, after the alienation the company’s assets were greater than its liabilities, or

b that the alienation was made for adequate consideration, or

c that the alienation—

i was a birthday, Christmas or other conventional gift, or

ii was a gift made, for a charitable purpose, to a person who is not an associate of the company,

which, having regard to all the circumstances, it was reasonable for the company to make:

Provided that this subsection is without prejudice to any right or interest acquired in good faith and for value from or through the transferee in the alienation.

5 In subsection (4) above, “charitable purpose” means any charitable, benevolent or philanthropic purpose, whether or not it is charitable within the meaning of any rule of law.

6 For the purposes of the foregoing provisions of this section, an alienation in implementation of a prior obligation is deemed to be one for which there was no consideration or no adequate consideration to the extent that the prior obligation was undertaken for no consideration or no adequate consideration.

7 A liquidator and an administrator have the same right as a creditor has under any rule of law to challenge an alienation of a company made for no consideration or no adequate consideration.

8 This section applies to Scotland only.

^C12161 Subject to subsection (2) below, subsection (4) below applies to a transaction entered into by a company, whether before or after 1st April 1986, which has the effect of creating a preference in favour of a creditor to the prejudice of the general body of creditors, being a preference created not earlier than 6 months before the commencement of the winding up of the company or the company enters administration.

2 Subsection (4) below does not apply to any of the following transactions—

a a transaction in the ordinary course of trade or business;

b a payment in cash for a debt which when it was paid had become payable, unless the transaction was collusive with the purpose of prejudicing the general body of creditors;

c a transaction whereby the parties to it undertake reciprocal obligations (whether the performance by the parties of their respective obligations occurs at the same time or at different times) unless the transaction was collusive as aforesaid;

d the granting of a mandate by a company authorising an arrestee to pay over the arrested funds or part thereof to the arrester where—

i there has been a decree for payment or a warrant for summary diligence, and

1 This section applies as does section 238, and where the company is, or has been, a party to a transaction for, or involving, the provision of credit to the company.

2 The court may, on the application of the office-holder, make an order with respect to the transaction if the transaction is or was extortionate and was entered into in the period of 3 years ending with the day on which the company entered administration or went into liquidation.

3 For the purposes of this section a transaction is extortionate if, having regard to the risk accepted by the person providing the credit—

a provision setting aside the whole or part of any obligation created by the transaction,

b provision otherwise varying the terms of the transaction or varying the terms on which any security for the purposes of the transaction is held,

b the value of so much of that consideration as consists of the discharge or reduction, at the same time as, or after, the creation of the charge, of any debt of the company, and

c the amount of such interest (if any) as is payable on the amount falling within paragraph (a) or (b) in pursuance of any agreement under which the money was so paid, the goods or services were so supplied or the debt was so discharged or reduced.

4 Where a company creates a floating charge at a time mentioned in subsection (3)(b) and the person in favour of whom the charge is created is not connected with the company, that time is not a relevant time for the purposes of this section unless the company—

a is at that time unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 123 in Chapter VI of Part IV, or

b becomes unable to pay its debts within the meaning of that section in consequence of the transaction under which the charge is created.

5 For the purposes of subsection (3), the onset of insolvency is—

a in a case where this section applies by reason of an administrator of a company being appointed by administration order, the date on which the administration application is made,

b in a case where this section applies by reason of an administrator of a company being appointed under paragraph 14 or 22 of Schedule B1 following filing with the court of a copy of notice of intention to appoint under that paragraph, the date on which the copy of the notice is filed,

c in a case where this section applies by reason of an administrator of a company being appointed otherwise than as mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b), the date on which the appointment takes effect, and

d in a case where this section applies by reason of a company going into liquidation, the date of the commencement of the winding up.

6 For the purposes of subsection (2)(a) the value of any goods or services supplied by way of consideration for a floating charge is the amount in money which at the time they were supplied could reasonably have been expected to be obtained for supplying the goods or services in the ordinary course of business and on the same terms (apart from the consideration) as those on which they were supplied to the company.

2 This subsection applies in relation to a person if—

c the person was a director of the company at that time.

3 The court must not make a declaration under this section with respect to any person if it is satisfied that, after the condition specified in subsection (2)(b) was first satisfied in relation to the person, the person took every step with a view to minimising the potential loss to the company's creditors as (on the assumption that the person had knowledge of the matter mentioned in subsection (2)(b)) the person ought to have taken.

b the general knowledge, skill and experience that that director has.

5 The reference in subsection (4) to the functions carried out in relation to a company by a director of the company includes any functions which the director does not carry out but which have been entrusted to the director.

6 For the purposes of this section—

a a company enters insolvent administration if it enters administration at a time when its assets are insufficient for the payment of its debts and other liabilities and the expenses of the administration;

b a company goes into insolvent liquidation if it goes into liquidation at a time when its assets are insufficient for the payment of its debts and other liabilities and the expenses of the winding up.

251D Presumptions applicable to the determination of an application¶

1 The following presumptions are to apply to the determination of an application for a debt relief order.

2 The official receiver must presume that the debtor is an individual who is unable to pay his debts at the determination date if—

a that appears to the official receiver to be the case at the application date from the information supplied in the application and he has no reason to believe that the information supplied is incomplete or inaccurate; and

b he has no reason to believe that, by virtue of a change in the debtor's financial circumstances since the application date, the debtor may be able to pay his debts.

3 The official receiver must presume that a specified debt (of the amount specified in the application and owed to the creditor so specified) is a qualifying debt at the application date if—

a that appears to him to be the case from the information supplied in the application; and

b he has no reason to believe that the information supplied is incomplete or inaccurate.

4 The official receiver must presume that the condition specified in paragraph 1 of Schedule 4ZA is met if—

b any prescribed verification checks relating to the condition have been made; and

c he has no reason to believe that, by virtue of a change in circumstances since the application date, the condition may no longer be met.

7 In this section “specified debt” means a debt specified in the application.

Making and effect of debt relief order¶

251E Making of debt relief orders¶

1 This section applies where the official receiver makes a debt relief order on determining an application under section 251C.

2 The order must be made in the prescribed form.

3 The order must include a list of the debts which the official receiver is satisfied were qualifying debts of the debtor at the application date, specifying the amount of the debt at that time and the creditor to whom it was then owed.

4 The official receiver must—

a give a copy of the order to the debtor; and

b make an entry for the order in the register containing the prescribed information about the order or the debtor.

5 The rules may make provision as to other steps to be taken by the official receiver or the debtor on the making of the order.

6 Those steps may include in particular notifying each creditor to whom a qualifying debt specified in the order is owed of—

a the making of the order and its effect,

b the grounds on which a creditor may object under section 251K, and

c any other prescribed information.

7 In this Part the date on which an entry relating to the making of a debt relief order is first made in the register is referred to as “the effective date”.

251F Effect of debt relief order on other debt management arrangements¶

1 This section applies if—

a a debt relief order is made, and

b immediately before the order is made, other debt management arrangements are in force in respect of the debtor.

2 The other debt management arrangements cease to be in force when the debt relief order is made.

3 In this section “other debt management arrangements” means—

a an administration order under Part 6 of the County Courts Act 1984;

b an enforcement restriction order under Part 6A of that Act;

c a debt repayment plan arranged in accordance with a debt management scheme that is approved under Chapter 4 of Part 5 of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007.

251G Moratorium from qualifying debts¶

1 A moratorium commences on the effective date for a debt relief order in relation to each qualifying debt specified in the order (“a specified qualifying debt”).

2 During the moratorium, the creditor to whom a specified qualifying debt is owed—

a has no remedy in respect of the debt, and

b may not—

i commence a creditor's petition in respect of the debt, or

ii otherwise commence any action or other legal proceedings against the debtor for the debt,

except with the permission of the court and on such terms as the court may impose.

3 If on the effective date a creditor to whom a specified qualifying debt is owed has any such petition, action or other proceeding as mentioned in subsection (2)(b) pending in any court, the court may—

a stay the proceedings on the petition, action or other proceedings (as the case may be), or

b allow them to continue on such terms as the court thinks fit.

4 In subsection (2)(a) and (b) references to the debt include a reference to any interest, penalty or other sum that becomes payable in relation to that debt after the application date.

5 Nothing in this section affects the right of a secured creditor of the debtor to enforce his security.

251H The moratorium period¶

1 The moratorium relating to the qualifying debts specified in a debt relief order continues for the period of one year beginning with the effective date for the order, unless—

a the moratorium terminates early; or

b the moratorium period is extended by the official receiver under this section or by the court under section 251M.

2 The official receiver may only extend the moratorium period for the purpose of—

a carrying out or completing an investigation under section 251K;

b taking any action he considers necessary (whether as a result of an investigation or otherwise) in relation to the order; or

c in a case where he has decided to revoke the order, providing the debtor with the opportunity to make arrangements for making payments towards his debts.

3 The official receiver may not extend the moratorium period for the purpose mentioned in subsection (2)(a) without the permission of the court.

4 The official receiver may not extend the moratorium period beyond the end of the period of three months beginning after the end of the initial period of one year mentioned in subsection (1).

5 The moratorium period may be extended more than once, but any extension (whether by the official receiver or by the court) must be made before the moratorium would otherwise end.

6 References in this Part to a moratorium terminating early are to its terminating before the end of what would otherwise be the moratorium period, whether on the revocation of the order or by virtue of any other enactment.

251I Discharge from qualifying debts¶

1 Subject as follows, at the end of the moratorium applicable to a debt relief order the debtor is discharged from all the qualifying debts specified in the order (including all interest, penalties and other sums which may have become payable in relation to those debts since the application date).

2 Subsection (1) does not apply if the moratorium terminates early.

3 Subsection (1) does not apply in relation to any qualifying debt which the debtor incurred in respect of any fraud or fraudulent breach of trust to which the debtor was a party.

4 The discharge of the debtor under subsection (1) does not release any other person from—

a any liability (whether as partner or co-trustee of the debtor or otherwise) from which the debtor is released by the discharge; or

b any liability as surety for the debtor or as a person in the nature of such a surety.

5 If the order is revoked by the court under section 251M after the end of the moratorium period, the qualifying debts specified in the order shall (so far as practicable) be treated as though subsection (1) had never applied to them.

Duties of debtor¶

251J Providing assistance to official receiver etc¶

1 The duties in this section apply to a debtor at any time after the making of an application by him for a debt relief order.

2 The debtor must—

a give to the official receiver such information as to his affairs,

c do all such other things,

as the official receiver may reasonably require for the purpose of carrying out his functions in relation to the application or, as the case may be, the debt relief order made as a result of the application.

a any error in, or omission from, the information supplied to the official receiver in, or in support of, the application;

5 If a debt relief order is made as a result of the application, the debtor must notify the official receiver as soon as reasonably practicable if—

a there is an increase in his income during the moratorium period applicable to the order;

b he acquires any property or any property is devolved upon him during that period;

c he becomes aware of any error in or omission from any information supplied by him to the official receiver after the determination date.

6 A notification under subsection (3) or (5) must give the prescribed particulars (if any) of the matter being notified.

Objections, investigations and revocation¶

251K Objections and investigations¶

1 Any person specified in a debt relief order as a creditor to whom a specified qualifying debt is owed may object to—

4 The official receiver may—

a as part of his consideration of an objection, or

b on his own initiative,

carry out an investigation of any matter that appears to the official receiver to be relevant to the making of any decision mentioned in subsection (5) in relation to a debt relief order or the debtor.

5 The decisions to which an investigation may be directed are—

a whether the order should be revoked or amended under section 251L;

b whether an application should be made to the court under section 251M; or

c whether any other steps should be taken in relation to the debtor.

6 The power to carry out an investigation under this section is exercisable after (as well as during) the moratorium relating to the order.

7 The official receiver may require any person to give him such information and assistance as he may reasonably require in connection with an investigation under this section.

8 Subject to anything prescribed in the rules as to the procedure to be followed in carrying out an investigation under this section, an investigation may be carried out by the official receiver in such manner as he thinks fit.

251L Power of official receiver to revoke or amend a debt relief order¶

1 The official receiver may revoke or amend a debt relief order during the applicable moratorium period in the circumstances provided for by this section.

2 The official receiver may revoke the order on the ground that—

a any information supplied to him by the debtor—

i in, or in support of, the application, or

ii after the determination date,

was incomplete, incorrect or otherwise misleading;

b the debtor has failed to comply with a duty under section 251J;

c a bankruptcy order has been made in relation to the debtor; or

d the debtor has made a proposal under Part 8 (or has notified the official receiver of his intention to do so).

3 The official receiver may revoke the order on the ground that he should not have been satisfied—

a that the debts specified in the order were qualifying debts of the debtor as at the application date;

b that the conditions specified in Part 1 of Schedule 4ZA were met;

c that the conditions specified in Part 2 of that Schedule were met or that any failure to meet such a condition did not prevent his making the order.

4 The official receiver may revoke the order on the ground that either or both of the conditions in paragraphs 7 and 8 of Schedule 4ZA (monthly surplus income and property) are not met at any time after the order was made.For this purpose those paragraphs are to be read as if references to the determination date were references to the time in question.

5 Where the official receiver decides to revoke the order, he may revoke it either—

a with immediate effect, or

b with effect from such date (not more than three months after the date of the decision) as he may specify.

6 In considering when the revocation should take effect the official receiver must consider (in the light of the grounds on which the decision to revoke was made and all the other circumstances of the case) whether the debtor ought to be given the opportunity to make arrangements for making payments towards his debts.

7 If the order has been revoked with effect from a specified date the official receiver may, if he thinks it appropriate to do so at any time before that date, revoke the order with immediate effect.

8 The official receiver may amend a debt relief order for the purpose of correcting an error in or omission from anything specified in the order.

9 But subsection (8) does not permit the official receiver to add any debts that were not specified in the application for the debt relief order to the list of qualifying debts.

10 The rules may make further provision as to the procedure to be followed by the official receiver in the exercise of his powers under this section.

255 Cases in which interim order can be made.¶

1 The court shall not make an interim order on an application under section 253 unless it is satisfied—

a that the debtor intends to make a proposal under this Part;

b that on the day of the making of the application the debtor was an undischarged bankrupt or was able to make a bankruptcy application ;

c that no previous application has been made by the debtor for an interim order in the period of 12 months ending with that day; and

d that the nominee under the debtor’s proposal ^F257. . . is willing to act in relation to the proposal.

2 The court may make an order if it thinks that it would be appropriate to do so for the purpose of facilitating the consideration and implementation of the debtor’s proposal.

3 Where the debtor is an undischarged bankrupt, the interim order may contain provision as to the conduct of the bankruptcy, and the administration of the bankrupt’s estate, during the period for which the order is in force.

4 Subject as follows, the provision contained in an interim order by virtue of subsection (3) may include provision staying proceedings in the bankruptcy or modifying any provision in this Group of Parts, and any provision of the rules in their application to the debtor’s bankruptcy.

5 An interim order shall not, in relation to a bankrupt, make provision relaxing or removing any of the requirements of provisions in this Group of Parts, or of the rules, unless the court is satisfied that that provision is unlikely to result in any significant diminution in, or in the value of, the debtor’s estate for the purposes of the bankruptcy.

6 Subject to the following provisions of this Part, an interim order made on an application under section 253 ceases to have effect at the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day after the making of the order.

256 ^C412 Nominee’s report on debtor’s proposal. ¶

1 Where an interim order has been made on an application under section 253, the nominee shall, before the order ceases to have effect, submit a report to the court stating—

a whether, in his opinion, the voluntary arrangement which the debtor is proposing has a reasonable prospect of being approved and implemented, and

aa whether, in his opinion, the debtor's creditors should consider the debtors’ proposal ^F1067...

^F1068b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2 For the purpose of enabling the nominee to prepare his report the debtor shall submit to the nominee—

a a document setting out the terms of the voluntary arrangement which the debtor is proposing, and

b a statement of his affairs containing—

i such particulars of his creditors and of his debts and other liabilities and of his assets as may be prescribed, and

ii such other information as may be prescribed.

3 The court may—

a on an application made by the debtor in a case where the nominee has failed to submit the report required by this section or has died, or

b on an application made by the debtor or the nominee in a case where it is impracticable or inappropriate for the nominee to continue to act as such,

direct that the nominee shall be replaced as such by another person qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner, or authorised to act as nominee, in relation to the voluntary arrangement.

3A The court may, on an application made by the debtor in a case where the nominee has failed to submit the report required by this section, direct that the interim order shall continue, or (if it has ceased to have effect) be renewed, for such further period as the court may specify in the direction.

4 The court may, on the application of the nominee, extend the period for which the interim order has effect so as to enable the nominee to have more time to prepare his report.

5 If the court is satisfied on receiving the nominee’s report that the debtor's creditors should consider the debtor’s proposal, the court shall direct that the period for which the interim order has effect shall be extended, for such further period as it may specify in the direction, for the purpose of enabling the debtor’s proposal to be considered by his creditors in accordance with the following provisions of this Part.

6 The court may discharge the interim order if it is satisfied, on the application of the nominee—

a that the debtor has failed to comply with his obligations under subsection (2), or

b that for any other reason it would be inappropriate for the debtor's creditors to consider the debtor’s proposal.

Procedure where no interim order made¶

^C1443256A Debtor’s proposal and nominee’s report.¶

1 This section applies where a debtor (being an individual)—

a intends to make a proposal under this Part (but an interim order has not been made in relation to the proposal and no application for such an order is pending), and

b if he is an undischarged bankrupt, has given notice of the proposal to the official receiver and, if there is one, the trustee of his estate,

^F971...

2 For the purpose of enabling the nominee to prepare a report under subsection (3), the debtor shall submit to the nominee—

a a document setting out the terms of the voluntary arrangement which the debtor is proposing, and

b a statement of his affairs containing—

i such particulars of his creditors and of his debts and other liabilities and of his assets as may be prescribed, and

ii such other information as may be prescribed.

3 If the nominee is of the opinion that the debtor is an undischarged bankrupt, or is able to make a bankruptcy application , the nominee shall, within 14 days (or such longer period as the court may allow) after receiving the document and statement mentioned in subsection (2), submit a report to the debtor's creditors stating—

a whether, in his opinion, the voluntary arrangement which the debtor is proposing has a reasonable prospect of being approved and implemented, and

b whether, in his opinion, the debtor's creditors should consider the debtor’s proposal ^F1073...

^F1074c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4 The court may—

a on an application made by the debtor in a case where the nominee has failed to submit the report required by this section or has died, or

b on an application made by the debtor or the nominee in a case where it is impracticable or inappropriate for the nominee to continue to act as such,

direct that the nominee shall be replaced as such by another person qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner, or authorised to act as nominee, in relation to the voluntary arrangement.

5 The court may, on an application made by the nominee, extend the period within which the nominee is to submit his report.

Creditors’ decisions ¶

^C413^C414257 Consideration of debtor's proposal by creditors ¶

1 This section applies where it has been reported to the court under section 256 or to the debtor's creditors under section 256A that the debtor's creditors should consider the debtor's proposal.

2 The nominee (or the nominee's replacement under section 256(3) or 256A(4)) must seek a decision from the debtor's creditors as to whether they approve the proposed voluntary arrangement (unless, in the case of a report to which section 256 applies, the court otherwise directs).

2A The decision is to be made by a creditors' decision procedure.

2B Notice of the creditors' decision procedure must be given to every creditor of the debtor of whose claim and address the nominee (or the nominee's replacement) is aware.

3 For this purpose the creditors of a debtor who is an undischarged bankrupt include—

a every person who is a creditor of the bankrupt in respect of a bankruptcy debt, and

b every person who would be such a creditor if the bankruptcy had commenced on the date on which notice of the creditors' decision procedure is given.

Consideration and implementation of debtor’s proposal¶

^C415^C416^C1008258 Approval of debtor's proposal¶

1 This section applies where under section 257 the debtor's creditors are asked to decide whether to approve the proposed voluntary arrangement.

2 The creditors may approve the proposed voluntary arrangement with or without modifications, but shall not approve it with modifications unless the debtor consents to each modification.

3 The modifications subject to which the proposed voluntary arrangement may be approved may include one conferring the functions proposed to be conferred on the nominee on another person qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner or authorised to act as nominee, in relation to the voluntary arrangement.But they shall not include any modification by virtue of which the proposal ceases to be a proposal under this Part.

4 The creditors shall not approve any proposal or modification which affects the right of a secured creditor of the debtor to enforce his security, except with the concurrence of the creditor concerned.

5 Subject as follows, the creditors shall not approve any proposal or modification under which—

a any preferential debt of the debtor is to be paid otherwise than in priority to such of his debts as are not preferential debts, ^F763...

aa any ordinary preferential debt of the debtor is to be paid otherwise than in priority to any secondary preferential debts that the debtor may have,

b a preferential creditor of the debtor is to be paid an amount in respect of an ordinary preferential debt that bears to that debt a smaller proportion than is borne to another ordinary preferential debt by the amount that is to be paid in respect of that other debt , ^F1234...

c a preferential creditor of the debtor is to be paid an amount in respect of a secondary preferential debt that bears to that debt a smaller proportion than is borne to another secondary preferential debt by the amount that is to be paid in respect of that other debt. or

d if the debtor is a relevant financial institution (see section 387A), any non-preferential debt is to be paid otherwise than in accordance with the rules in section 328(3A) (reading references to the bankrupt as references to the debtor),

However, the creditors may approve such a proposal or modification with the concurrence of the ^F1233... creditor concerned.

^F10856 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

7 In this section “preferential debt” , "ordinary preferential debt” and “secondary preferential debt” each has the meaning given by section 386 in Part XII; and “preferential creditor” is to be construed accordingly.

^C417259 Report of decisions to court.¶

1 When pursuant to section 257 the debtor's creditors have decided whether to approve the debtor's proposal (with or without modifications), the nominee (or the nominee's replacement under section 256(3) or 256A(4)) must—

a give notice of the creditors' decision to such persons as may be prescribed, and

b where the creditors considered the debtor's proposal pursuant to a report to the court under section 256(1)(aa), report the creditors' decision to the court.

2 If the report is that the creditors have declined (with or without modifications) to approve the voluntary arrangement proposed under section 256, the court may discharge any interim order which is in force in relation to the debtor.

^C418260 Effect of approval.¶

1 This section has effect where pursuant to section 257 the debtor's creditors decide to approve the proposed voluntary arrangement (with or without modifications).

2 The approved arrangement—

a takes effect as if made by the debtor at the time the creditors decided to approve the proposal, and

b binds every person who in accordance with the rules—

i was entitled to vote in the creditors' decision procedure by which the decision to approve the proposal was made, or

ii would have been so entitled if he had had notice of it,

as if he were a party to the arrangement.

2A If—

a when the arrangement ceases to have effect any amount payable under the arrangement to a person bound by virtue of subsection (2)(b)(ii) has not been paid, and

b the arrangement did not come to an end prematurely,

the debtor shall at that time become liable to pay to that person the amount payable under the arrangement.

^F8913 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4 Any interim order in force in relation to the debtor immediately before the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the report with respect to the creditors’ decision was made to the court under section 259 ceases to have effect at the end of that period.This subsection applies except to such extent as the court may direct for the purposes of any application under section 262 below.

5 Where proceedings on a bankruptcy petition have been stayed by an interim order which ceases to have effect under subsection (4), that petition is deemed, unless the court otherwise orders, to have been dismissed.

261 Additional effect on undischarged bankrupt¶

1 This section applies where—

a pursuant to section 257 the debtor's creditors decide to approve the proposed voluntary arrangement (with or without modifications), and

b the debtor is an undischarged bankrupt.

2 Where this section applies the court shall annul the bankruptcy order on an application made—

a by the bankrupt, or

b where the bankrupt has not made an application within the prescribed period, by the official receiver.

3 An application under subsection (2) may not be made—

a during the period specified in section 262(3)(a) during which the creditors' decision can be challenged by application under section 262,

b while an application under that section is pending, or

c while an appeal in respect of an application under that section is pending or may be brought.

4 Where this section applies the court may give such directions about the conduct of the bankruptcy and the administration of the bankrupt’s estate as it thinks appropriate for facilitating the implementation of the approved voluntary arrangement.

^C419^C420262 Challenge of creditors' decision.¶

1 Subject to this section, an application to the court may be made, by any of the persons specified below, on one or both of the following grounds, namely—

a that a voluntary arrangement approved by a decision of the debtor's creditors pursuant to section 257 unfairly prejudices the interests of a creditor of the debtor;

b that there has been some material irregularity in relation to a creditors' decision procedure instigated under that section.

2 The persons who may apply under this section are—

a the debtor;

b a person who—

i was entitled, in accordance with the rules, to vote in the creditors' decision procedure, or

ii would have been so entitled if he had had notice of it

c the nominee (or his replacement under section 256(3), 256A(4) or 258(3)); and

d if the debtor is an undischarged bankrupt, the trustee of his estate or the official receiver.

3 An application under this section shall not be made

a after the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the creditors decided whether to approve the proposed voluntary arrangement or, where a report was required to be made to the court under section 259(1)(b), the day on which the report was made or

b in the case of a person who was not given notice of the creditors' decision procedure, after the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which he became aware that a decision as to whether to approve the proposed voluntary arrangement had been made,

but (subject to that) an application made by a person within subsection (2)(b)(ii) on the ground that the arrangement prejudices his interests may be made after the arrangement has ceased to have effect, unless it has come to an end prematurely.

4 Where on an application under this section the court is satisfied as to either of the grounds mentioned in subsection (1), it may do one or both of the following, namely—

a revoke or suspend any approval given by a decision of the debtor's creditors;

b direct any person to seek a decision from the debtor's creditors (using a creditors' decision procedure) as to whether they approve—

i any revised proposal the debtor may make, or

ii in a case falling within subsection (1)(b), the debtor's original proposal.

5 Where at any time after giving a direction under subsection (4)(b) in relation to a revised proposal the court is satisfied that the debtor does not intend to submit such a proposal, the court shall revoke the direction and revoke or suspend any approval previously given by the debtor's creditors.

6 Where the court gives a direction under subsection (4)(b), it may also give a direction continuing or, as the case may require, renewing, for such period as may be specified in the direction, the effect in relation to the debtor of any interim order.

7 In any case where the court, on an application made under this section with respect to a creditors’ decision, gives a direction under subsection (4)(b) or revokes or suspends an approval under subsection (4)(a) or (5), the court may give such supplemental directions as it thinks fit and, in particular, directions with respect to—

a things done since the decision under any voluntary arrangement approved by the meeting, and

b such things done since the decision as could not have been done if any interim order had been in force in relation to the debtor when they were done.

8 Except in pursuance of the preceding provisions of this section, the approval of a voluntary arrangement by a decision of the debtor's creditors pursuant to section 257 is not invalidated by any irregularity in relation to the creditors' decision procedure by which the decision was made.

262A False representations etc.¶

1 If for the purpose of obtaining the approval of his creditors to a proposal for a voluntary arrangement, the debtor—

a makes any false representation, or

b fraudulently does, or omits to do, anything,

he commits an offence.

2 Subsection (1) applies even if the proposal is not approved.

3 A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable to imprisonment or a fine, or both.

^F273262B Prosecution of delinquent debtors.¶

1 This section applies where a voluntary arrangement approved by a decision of the debtor's creditors pursuant to section 257 has taken effect.

2 If it appears to the nominee or supervisor that the debtor has been guilty of any offence in connection with the arrangement for which he is criminally liable, he shall forthwith—

a report the matter to the Secretary of State, and

b provide the Secretary of State with such information and give the Secretary of State such access to and facilities for inspecting and taking copies of documents (being information or documents in his possession or under his control and relating to the matter in question) as the Secretary of State requires.

3 Where a prosecuting authority institutes criminal proceedings following any report under subsection (2), the nominee or, as the case may be, supervisor shall give the authority all assistance in connection with the prosecution which he is reasonably able to give.

For this purpose, “prosecuting authority” means the Director of Public Prosecutions or the Secretary of State.

4 The court may, on the application of the prosecuting authority, direct a nominee or supervisor to comply with subsection (3) if he has failed to do so.

^F274262C Arrangements coming to an end prematurely.¶

For the purposes of this Part, a voluntary arrangement approved by a decision of the debtor's creditors pursuant to section 257 comes to an end prematurely if, when it ceases to have effect, it has not been fully implemented in respect of all persons bound by the arrangement by virtue of section 260(2)(b)(i).

^C421263 Implementation and supervision of approved voluntary arrangement.¶

1 This section applies where a voluntary arrangement approved by a decision of the debtor's creditors pursuant to section 257 has taken effect.

2 The person who is for the time being carrying out, in relation to the voluntary arrangement, the functions conferred by virtue of the approval on the nominee (or his replacement under section 256(3), 256A(4) or 258(3)) shall be known as the supervisor of the voluntary arrangement.

3 If the debtor, any of his creditors or any other person is dissatisfied by any act, omission or decision of the supervisor, he may apply to the court; and on such an application the court may—

a confirm, reverse or modify any act or decision of the supervisor,

b give him directions, or

c make such other order as it thinks fit.

4 The supervisor may apply to the court for directions in relation to any particular matter arising under the voluntary arrangement.

5 The court may, whenever—

a it is expedient to appoint a person to carry out the functions of the supervisor, and

b it is inexpedient, difficult or impracticable for an appointment to be made without the assistance of the court, make an order appointing a person who is qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner or authorised to act as supervisor, in relation to the voluntary arrangement, either in substitution for the existing supervisor or to fill a vacancy.

^F892...

6 The power conferred by subsection (5) is exercisable so as to increase the number of persons exercising the functions of the supervisor or, where there is more than one person exercising those functions, so as to replace one or more of those persons.

2 A bankruptcy petition shall not be withdrawn without the leave of the court.

3 The court has a general power, if it appears to it appropriate to do so on the grounds that there has been a contravention of the rules or for any other reason, to dismiss a bankruptcy petition or to stay proceedings on such a petition; and, where it stays proceedings on a petition, it may do so on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit.

4 Without prejudice to subsection (3), where a petition under section 264(1)(a) ^F1013... or (c) in respect of an individual is pending at a time when a criminal bankruptcy order is made against him, or is presented after such an order has been so made, the court may on the application of the Official Petitioner dismiss the petition if it appears to it appropriate to do so.

Creditor’s petition¶

c the debt, or each of the debts, is a debt which the debtor appears either to be unable to pay or to have no reasonable prospect of being able to pay, and

d there is no outstanding application to set aside a statutory demand served (under section 268 below) in respect of the debt or any of the debts.

3 A debt is not to be regarded for the purposes of subsection (2) as a debt for a liquidated sum by reason only that the amount of the debt is specified in a criminal bankruptcy order.

4 “The bankruptcy level” is £5,000 but the Secretary of State may by order in a statutory instrument substitute any amount specified in the order for that amount or (as the case may be) for the amount which by virtue of such an order is for the time being the amount of the bankruptcy level.

5 An order shall not be made under subsection (4) unless a draft of it has been laid before, and approved by a resolution of, each House of Parliament.

^C435^C1445268 Definition of “inability to pay”, etc.; the statutory demand.¶

1 For the purposes of section 267(2)(c), the debtor appears to be unable to pay a debt if, but only if, the debt is payable immediately and either—

a the petitioning creditor to whom the debt is owed has served on the debtor a demand (known as “the statutory demand”) in the prescribed form requiring him to pay the debt or to secure or compound for it to the satisfaction of the creditor, at least 3 weeks have elapsed since the demand was served and the demand has been neither complied with nor set aside in accordance with the rules, or

b execution or other process issued in respect of the debt on a judgment or order of any court in favour of the petitioning creditor, or one or more of the petitioning creditors to whom the debt is owed, has been returned unsatisfied in whole or in part.

2 For the purposes of section 267(2)(c) the debtor appears to have no reasonable prospect of being able to pay a debt if, but only if, the debt is not immediately payable and—

a the petitioning creditor to whom it is owed has served on the debtor a demand (also known as “the statutory demand”) in the prescribed form requiring him to establish to the satisfaction of the creditor that there is a reasonable prospect that the debtor will be able to pay the debt when it falls due,

b at least 3 weeks have elapsed since the demand was served, and

c the demand has been neither complied with nor set aside in accordance with the rules.

^C436269 Creditor with security.¶

1 A debt which is the debt, or one of the debts, in respect of which a creditor’s petition is presented need not be unsecured if either—

a the petition contains a statement by the person having the right to enforce the security that he is willing, in the event of a bankruptcy order being made, to give up his security for the benefit of all the bankrupt’s creditors, or

b the petition is expressed not to be made in respect of the secured part of the debt and contains a statement by that person of the estimated value at the date of the petition of the security for the secured part of the debt.

2 In a case falling within subsection (1)(b) the secured and unsecured parts of the debt are to be treated for the purposes of sections 267 to 270 as separate debts.

270 Expedited petition.¶

In the case of a creditor’s petition presented wholly or partly in respect of a debt which is the subject of a statutory demand under section 268, the petition may be presented before the end of the 3-week period there mentioned if there is a serious possibility that the debtor’s property or the value of any of his property will be significantly diminished during that period and the petition contains a statement to that effect.

^C1079^C1080271 Proceedings on creditor’s petition.¶

1 The court shall not make a bankruptcy order on a creditor’s petition unless it is satisfied that the debt, or one of the debts, in respect of which the petition was presented is either—

a a debt which, having been payable at the date of the petition or having since become payable, has been neither paid nor secured or compounded for, or

b a debt which the debtor has no reasonable prospect of being able to pay when it falls due.

2 In a case in which the petition contains such a statement as is required by section 270, the court shall not make a bankruptcy order until at least 3 weeks have elapsed since the service of any statutory demand under section 268.

3 The court may dismiss the petition if it is satisfied that the debtor is able to pay all his debts or is satisfied—

a that the debtor has made an offer to secure or compound for a debt in respect of which the petition is presented,

b that the acceptance of that offer would have required the dismissal of the petition, and

c that the offer has been unreasonably refused;

and, in determining for the purposes of this subsection whether the debtor is able to pay all his debts, the court shall take into account his contingent and prospective liabilities.

4 In determining for the purposes of this section what constitutes a reasonable prospect that a debtor will be able to pay a debt when it falls due, it is to be assumed that the prospect given by the facts and other matters known to the creditor at the time he entered into the transaction resulting in the debt was a reasonable prospect.

5 Nothing in sections 267 to 271 prejudices the power of the court, in accordance with the rules, to authorise a creditor’s petition to be amended by the omission of any creditor or debt and to be proceeded with as if things done for the purposes of those sections had been done only by or in relation to the remaining creditors or debts.

276 Default in connection with voluntary arrangement.¶

1 The court shall not make a bankruptcy order on a petition under section 264(1)(c) (supervisor of, or person bound by, voluntary arrangement proposed and approved) unless it is satisfied—

a that the debtor has failed to comply with his obligations under the voluntary arrangement, or

b that information which was false or misleading in any material particular or which contained material omissions—

i was contained in any statement of affairs or other document supplied by the debtor under Part VIII to any person, or

ii was otherwise made available by the debtor to his creditors in connection with a creditors' decision procedure instigated under that Part, or

c that the debtor has failed to do all such things as may for the purposes of the voluntary arrangement have been reasonably required of him by the supervisor of the arrangement.

^C4372 Where a bankruptcy order is made on a petition under section 264(1)(c), any expenses properly incurred as expenses of the administration of the voluntary arrangement in question shall be a first charge on the bankrupt’s estate.

^C438277 Petition based on criminal bankruptcy order.¶

1 Subject to section 266(3), the court shall make a bankruptcy order on a petition under section 264(1)(d) on production of a copy of the criminal bankruptcy order on which the petition is based.This does not apply if it appears to the court that the criminal bankruptcy order has been rescinded on appeal.

2 Subject to the provisions of this Part, the fact that an appeal is pending against any conviction by virtue of which a criminal bankruptcy order was made does not affect any proceedings on a petition under section 264(1)(d) based on that order.

3 For the purposes of this section, an appeal against a conviction is pending—

a in any case, until the expiration of the period of 28 days beginning with the date of conviction;

b if notice of appeal to the Court of Appeal is given during that period and during that period the appellant notifies the official receiver of it, until the determination of the appeal and thereafter for so long as an appeal to the Supreme Court is pending within the meaning of subsection (4).

4 For the purposes of subsection (3)(b) an appeal to the Supreme Court shall be treated as pending until any application for leave to appeal is disposed of and, if leave to appeal is granted, until the appeal is disposed of; and for the purposes of this subsection an application for leave to appeal shall be treated as disposed of at the expiration of the time within which it may be made, if it is not made within that time.

281 Effect of discharge.¶

1 Subject as follows, where a bankrupt is discharged, the discharge releases him from all the bankruptcy debts, but has no effect—

a on the functions (so far as they remain to be carried out) of the trustee of his estate, or

b on the operation, for the purposes of the carrying out of those functions, of the provisions of this Part;

and, in particular, discharge does not affect the right of any creditor of the bankrupt to prove in the bankruptcy for any debt from which the bankrupt is released.

2 Discharge does not affect the right of any secured creditor of the bankrupt to enforce his security for the payment of a debt from which the bankrupt is released.

3 Discharge does not release the bankrupt from any bankruptcy debt which he incurred in respect of, or forbearance in respect of which was secured by means of, any fraud or fraudulent breach of trust to which he was a party.

^C443^C444^C4454 Discharge does not release the bankrupt from any liability in respect of a fine imposed for an offence or from any liability under a recognisance except, in the case of a penalty imposed for an offence under an enactment relating to the public revenue or of a recognisance, with the consent of the Treasury.

6 Discharge does not release the bankrupt from such other bankruptcy debts, not being debts provable in his bankruptcy, as are prescribed.

7 Discharge does not release any person other than the bankrupt from any liability (whether as partner or co-trustee of the bankrupt or otherwise) from which the bankrupt is released by the discharge, or from any liability as surety for the bankrupt or as a person in the nature of such a surety.

8 In this section—

“family proceedings” means—

a proceedings in the family court; and

b family proceedings within the meaning of Part V of the ^M18 Matrimonial and Family Proceedings Act 1984.

b that, to the extent required by the rules, the bankruptcy debts and the expenses of the bankruptcy have all, since the making of the order, been either paid or secured for to the satisfaction of the court.

2 The court may annul a bankruptcy order made against an individual on a petition under paragraph (a)^F952... or (c) of section 264(1) or on a bankruptcy application if it at any time appears to the court, on an application by the Official Petitioner—

a that the petition was pending or the application was ongoing at a time when a criminal bankruptcy order was made against the individual or was presented after such an order was so made, and

b no appeal is pending (within the meaning of section 277) against the individual’s conviction of any offence by virtue of which the criminal bankruptcy order was made;

and the court shall annul a bankruptcy order made on a petition under section 264(1)(d) if it at any time appears to the court that the criminal bankruptcy order on which the petition was based has been rescinded in consequence of an appeal.

3 The court may annul a bankruptcy order whether or not the bankrupt has been discharged from the bankruptcy.

^C4474 Where the court annuls a bankruptcy order (whether under this section or under section 261 ^F822... in Part VIII)—

a any sale or other disposition of property, payment made or other thing duly done, under any provision in this Group of Parts, by or under the authority of the official receiver or a trustee of the bankrupt’s estate or by the court is valid, but

b if any of the bankrupt’s estate is then vested, under any such provision, in such a trustee, it shall vest in such person as the court may appoint or, in default of any such appointment, revert to the bankrupt on such terms (if any) as the court may direct;

Chapter II Protection of Bankrupt’s Estate and Investigation of His Affairs¶

^C448^C449^C450283 Definition of bankrupt’s estate.¶

1 Subject as follows, a bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of any of this Group of Parts comprises—

a all property belonging to or vested in the bankrupt at the commencement of the bankruptcy, and

b any property which by virtue of any of the following provisions of this Part is comprised in that estate or is treated as falling with the preceding paragraph.

2 Subsection (1) does not apply to—

a such tools, books, vehicles and other items of equipment as are necessary to the bankrupt for use personally by him in his employment, business or vocation;

b such clothing, bedding, furniture, household equipment and provisions as are necessary for satisfying the basic domestic needs of the bankrupt and his family.

This subsection is subject to section 308 in Chapter IV (certain excluded property reclaimable by trustee).

3 Subsection (1) does not apply to—

a property held by the bankrupt on trust for any other person, or

b the right of nomination to a vacant ecclesiastical benefice.

3A Subject to section 308A in Chapter IV, subsection (1) does not apply to—

a a tenancy which is an assured tenancy or an assured agricultural occupancy, within the meaning of Part I of the Housing Act 1988, and the terms of which inhibit an assignment as mentioned in section 127(5) of the ^M19 Rent Act 1977, or

aa a standard contract within the meaning of section 8 of the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 (anaw 1) and the terms of which inhibit an assignment as mentioned in section 127(5) of the Rent Act 1977 (c. 42), or

b a protected tenancy, within the meaning of the Rent Act 1977, in respect of which, by virtue of any provision of Part IX of that Act, no premium can lawfully be required as a condition of assignment, or

c a tenancy of a dwelling-house by virtue of which the bankrupt is, within the meaning of the ^M20 Rent (Agriculture) Act 1976, a protected occupier of the dwelling-house, and the terms of which inhibit an assignment as mentioned in section 127(5) of the Rent Act 1977, or

d a secure tenancy, within the meaning of Part IV of the ^M21 Housing Act 1985, which is not capable of being assigned, except in the cases mentioned in section 91(3) of that Act , or

e a secure contract within the meaning of section 8 of the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 (anaw 1) which is not capable of being assigned, except—

i in the cases mentioned in section 251 (family property order) of that Act,

ii in accordance with section 92 (assignment by way of exchange) of the Housing Act 1985 (c. 68), or

iii to a person who would be qualified to succeed the contract-holder if the contract-holder died immediately before the assignment.

4 References in any of this Group of Parts to property, in relation to a bankrupt, include references to any power exercisable by him over or in respect of property except in so far as the power is exercisable over or in respect of property not for the time being comprised in the bankrupt’s estate and—

a is so exercisable at a time after either the official receiver has had his release in respect of that estate under section 299(2) in chapter III or the trustee of that estate has vacated office under section 298(8), or

b cannot be so exercised for the benefit of the bankrupt;

and a power exercisable over or in respect of property is deemed for the purposes of any of this Group of Parts to vest in the person entitled to exercise it at the time of the transaction or event by virtue of which it is exercisable by that person (whether or not it becomes so exercisable at that time).

5 For the purposes of any such provision in this Group of Parts, property comprised in a bankrupt’s estate is so comprised subject to the rights of any person other than the bankrupt (whether as a secured creditor of the bankrupt or otherwise) in relation thereto, but disregarding—

a any rights in relation to which a statement such as is required by section 269(1)(a) was made in the petition on which the bankrupt was made bankrupt, and

b any rights which have been otherwise given up in accordance with the rules.

6 This section has effect subject to the provisions of any enactment not contained in this Act under which any property is to be excluded from a bankrupt’s estate.

^C451283A Bankrupt’s home ceasing to form part of estate¶

1 This section applies where property comprised in the bankrupt’s estate consists of an interest in a dwelling-house which at the date of the bankruptcy was the sole or principal residence of—

a the bankrupt,

b the bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner, or

c a former spouse or former civil partner of the bankrupt.

2 At the end of the period of three years beginning with the date of the bankruptcy the interest mentioned in subsection (1) shall—

a cease to be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate, and

b vest in the bankrupt (without conveyance, assignment or transfer).

3 Subsection (2) shall not apply if during the period mentioned in that subsection—

a the trustee realises the interest mentioned in subsection (1),

b the trustee applies for an order for sale in respect of the dwelling-house,

c the trustee applies for an order for possession of the dwelling-house,

d the trustee applies for an order under section 313 in Chapter IV in respect of that interest, or

e the trustee and the bankrupt agree that the bankrupt shall incur a specified liability to his estate (with or without the addition of interest from the date of the agreement) in consideration of which the interest mentioned in subsection (1) shall cease to form part of the estate.

^C4524 Where an application of a kind described in subsection (3)(b) to (d) is made during the period mentioned in subsection (2) and is dismissed, unless the court orders otherwise the interest to which the application relates shall on the dismissal of the application—

a cease to be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate, and

b vest in the bankrupt (without conveyance, assignment or transfer).

^C4525 If the bankrupt does not inform the trustee or the official receiver of his interest in a property before the end of the period of three months beginning with the date of the bankruptcy, the period of three years mentioned in subsection (2)—

a shall not begin with the date of the bankruptcy, but

b shall begin with the date on which the trustee or official receiver becomes aware of the bankrupt’s interest.

^C4526 The court may substitute for the period of three years mentioned in subsection (2) a longer period—

a in prescribed circumstances, and

b in such other circumstances as the court thinks appropriate.

^C4527 The rules may make provision for this section to have effect with the substitution of a shorter period for the period of three years mentioned in subsection (2) in specified circumstances (which may be described by reference to action to be taken by a trustee in bankruptcy).

^C4528 The rules may also, in particular, make provision—

a requiring or enabling the trustee of a bankrupt’s estate to give notice that this section applies or does not apply;

b about the effect of a notice under paragraph (a);

c requiring the trustee of a bankrupt’s estate to make an application to the Chief Land Registrar.

^C4529 Rules under subsection (8)(b) may, in particular—

a disapply this section;

b enable a court to disapply this section;

c make provision in consequence of a disapplication of this section;

d enable a court to make provision in consequence of a disapplication of this section;

e make provision (which may include provision conferring jurisdiction on a court or tribunal) about compensation.

^C453^C454^C455^C456^C457^C458284 Restrictions on dispositions of property.¶

1 Where a person is made bankrupt, any disposition of property made by that person in the period to which this section applies is void except to the extent that it is or was made with the consent of the court, or is or was subsequently ratified by the court.

2 Subsection (1) applies to a payment (whether in cash or otherwise) as it applies to a disposition of property and, accordingly, where any payment is void by virtue of that subsection, the person paid shall hold the sum paid for the bankrupt as part of his estate.

3 This section applies to the period beginning with the day of the making of the bankruptcy application or (as the case may be) the presentation of the bankruptcy petition and ending with the vesting, under Chapter IV of this Part, of the bankrupt’s estate in a trustee.

4 The preceding provisions of this section do not give a remedy against any person—

a in respect of any property or payment which he received before the commencement of the bankruptcy in good faith, for value and without notice that the bankruptcy application had been made or (as the case may be) that the bankruptcy petition had been presented, or

b in respect of any interest in property which derives from an interest in respect of which there is, by virtue of this subsection, no remedy.

5 Where after the commencement of his bankruptcy the bankrupt has incurred a debt to a banker or other person by reason of the making of a payment which is void under this section, that debt is deemed for the purposes of any of this Group of Parts to have been incurred before the commencement of the bankruptcy unless—

a that banker or person had notice of the bankruptcy before the debt was incurred, or

b it is not reasonably practicable for the amount of the payment to be recovered from the person to whom it was made.

6 A disposition of property is void under this section notwithstanding that the property is not or, as the case may be, would not be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate; but nothing in this section affects any disposition made by a person of property held by him on trust for any other person.

^C459^C460285 Restriction on proceedings and remedies.¶

1 At any time when proceedings on a bankruptcy application are ongoing or proceedings on a bankruptcy petition are pending or an individual has been made bankrupt the court may stay any action, execution or other legal process against the property or person of the debtor or, as the case may be, of the bankrupt.

2 Any court in which proceedings are pending against any individual may, on proof that a bankruptcy application has been made or a bankruptcy petition has been presented in respect of that individual or that he is an undischarged bankrupt, either stay the proceedings or allow them to continue on such terms as it thinks fit.

^C4613 After the making of a bankruptcy order no person who is a creditor of the bankrupt in respect of a debt provable in the bankruptcy shall—

a have any remedy against the property or person of the bankrupt in respect of that debt, or

b before the discharge of the bankrupt, commence any action or other legal proceedings against the bankrupt except with the leave of the court and on such terms as the court may impose.

This is subject to sections 346 (enforcement procedures) and 347 (limited right to distress).

4 Subject as follows, subsection (3) does not affect the right of a secured creditor of the bankrupt to enforce his security.

5 Where any goods of an undischarged bankrupt are held by any person by way of pledge, pawn or other security, the official receiver may, after giving notice in writing of his intention to do so, inspect the goods.Where such a notice has been given to any person, that person is not entitled, without leave of the court, to realise his security unless he has given the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate a reasonable opportunity of inspecting the goods and of exercising the bankrupt’s right of redemption.

6 References in this section to the property or goods of the bankrupt are to any of his property or goods, whether or not comprised in his estate.

286 Power to appoint interim receiver.¶

^C4621 The court may, if it is shown to be necessary for the protection of the debtor’s property, at any time after the presentation of a bankruptcy petition and before making a bankruptcy order, appoint the official receiver or an insolvency practitioner to be interim receiver of the debtor’s property.

^F9792 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C4623 The court may by an order appointing any person to be an interim receiver direct that his powers shall be limited or restricted in any respect; but, save as so directed, an interim receiver has, in relation to the debtor’s property, all the rights, powers, duties and immunities given by the next section.

^C4624 An order of the court appointing any person to be an interim receiver shall require that person to take immediate possession of the debtor’s property or, as the case may be, the part of it to which his powers as interim receiver are limited.

^C4625 Where an interim receiver has been appointed, the debtor shall give him such inventory of his property and such other information, and shall attend on the interim receiver at such times, as the latter may for the purpose of carrying out his functions under this section reasonably require.

^C4626 Where an interim receiver is appointed, section 285(3) applies for the period between the appointment and the making of a bankruptcy order on the petition, or the dismissal of the petition, as if the appointment were the making of such an order.

^C4627 A person ceases to be interim receiver of a debtor’s property if the bankruptcy petition relating to the debtor is dismissed, if a bankruptcy order is made on the petition or if the court by order otherwise terminates the appointment.

^C4628 References in this section to the debtor’s property are to all his property, whether or not it would be comprised in his estate if he were made bankrupt.

^C463287 Powers of interim receiver.¶

1 An interim receiver appointed under section 286 is the receiver and (subject to section 370 (special manager)) the manager of the debtor's property and is under a duty to act as such.

2 The function of an interim receiver while acting as receiver or manager of the debtor's property under this section is to protect the property; and for this purpose—

a he has the same powers as if he were a receiver or manager appointed by the High Court, and

b he is entitled to sell or otherwise dispose of any perishable goods comprised in the property and any other goods so comprised the value of which is likely to diminish if they are not disposed of.

3 An interim receiver while acting as receiver or manager of the debtor's property under this section—

a shall take all such steps as he thinks fit for protecting the debtor's property,

b is not required to do anything that involves his incurring expenditure, except in pursuance of directions given by—

i the Secretary of State, where the official receiver is the interim receiver, or

ii the court, in any other case,

c may, if he thinks fit (and shall, if so directed by the court) at any time seek a decision on a matter from the debtor's creditors.

4 Where—

a an interim receiver acting as receiver or manager of the debtor's property under this section seizes or disposes of any property which is not the debtor's property, and

b at the time of the seizure or disposal the interim receiver believes, and has reasonable grounds for believing, that he is entitled (whether in pursuance of an order of the court or otherwise) to seize or dispose of that property,

the interim receiver is not to be liable to any person in respect of any loss or damage resulting from the seizure or disposal except in so far as that loss or damage is caused by his negligence; and he has a lien on the property, or the proceeds of its sale, for such of the expenses of the interim receivership as were incurred in connection with the seizure or disposal.

^F11835 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C464^C1000^C465288 Statement of affairs.¶

^C4661 Where a bankruptcy order has been made otherwise than on a bankruptcy application, the official receiver may at any time before the discharge of the bankrupt require the bankrupt to submit to the official receiver a statement of affairs.

^C4662 The statement of affairs shall contain—

a such particulars of the bankrupt’s creditors and of his debts and other liabilities and of his assets as may be prescribed, and

b such other information as may be prescribed.

2A Where a bankrupt is required under subsection (1) to submit a statement of affairs to the official receiver, the bankrupt shall do so (subject to subsection (3)) before the end of the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the prescribed notice of the requirement is given to the bankrupt by the official receiver.

3 The official receiver may, if he thinks fit—

a release a bankrupt from an obligation imposed on the bankrupt under subsection (1), or

b either when giving the notice mentioned in subsection (2A) or subsequently, extend the period mentioned in that subsection,

b that a third person is to pay to the trustee or the official receiver a specified proportion of money due to the bankrupt by way of income for a specified period.

2 A provision of an income payments agreement of a kind specified in subsection (1)(a) or (b) may be enforced as if it were a provision of an income payments order.

3 While an income payments agreement is in force the court may, on the application of the bankrupt, his trustee or the official receiver, discharge or vary an attachment of earnings order that is for the time being in force to secure payments by the bankrupt.

4 The following provisions of section 310 shall apply to an income payments agreement as they apply to an income payments order—

a subsection (5) (receipts to form part of estate), and

b subsections (7) to (9) (meaning of income).

5 An income payments agreement must specify the period during which it is to have effect; and that period—

a may end after the discharge of the bankrupt, but

b may not end after the period of three years beginning with the date on which the agreement is made.

6 An income payments agreement may (subject to subsection (5)(b)) be varied—

a by written agreement between the parties, or

b by the court on an application made by the bankrupt, the trustee or the official receiver.

7 The court—

a may not vary an income payments agreement so as to include provision of a kind which could not be included in an income payments order, and

b shall grant an application to vary an income payments agreement if and to the extent that the court thinks variation necessary to avoid the effect mentioned in section 310(2).

^C497311 Acquisition by trustee of control.¶

1 The trustee shall take possession of all books, papers and other records which relate to the bankrupt’s estate or affairs and which belong to him or are in his possession or under his control (including any which would be privileged from disclosure in any proceedings).

2 In relation to, and for the purpose of acquiring or retaining possession of, the bankrupt’s estate, the trustee is in the same position as if her were a receiver of property appointed by the High Court; and the court may, on his application, enforce such acquisition or retention accordingly.

3 Where any part of the bankrupt’s estate consists of stock or shares in a company, shares in a ship or any other property transferable in the books of a company, office or person, the trustee may exercise the right to transfer the property to the same extent as the bankrupt might have exercised it if he had not become bankrupt.

4 Where any part of the estate consists of things in action, they are deemed to have been assigned to the trustee; but notice of the deemed assignment need not be given except in so far as it is necessary, in a case where the deemed assignment is from the bankrupt himself for protecting the priority of the trustee.

5 Where any goods comprised in the estate are held by any person by way of pledge, pawn or other security and no notice has been served in respect of those goods by the official receiver under subsection (5) of section 285 (restriction on realising security), the trustee may serve such a notice in respect of the goods; and whether or not a notice has been served under this subsection or that subsection, the trustee may, if he thinks fit, exercise the bankrupt’s right of redemption in respect of any such goods.

6 A notice served by the trustee under subsection (5) has the same effect as a notice served by the official receiver under section 285(5).

^C498^C499312 Obligation to surrender control to trustee.¶

1 The bankrupt shall deliver up to the trustee possession of any property, books, papers or other records of which he has possession or control and of which the trustee is required to take possession.This is without prejudice to the general duties of the bankrupt under section 333 in this Chapter.

2 If any of the following is in possession of any property, books, papers or other records of which the trustee is required to take possession, namely—

a the official receiver,

b a person who has ceased to be trustee of the bankrupt’s estate, or

c a person who has been the supervisor of a voluntary arrangement approved in relation to the bankrupt under Part VIII,

the official receiver or, as the case may be, that person shall deliver up possession of the property, books, papers or records to the trustee.

3 Any banker or agent of the bankrupt or any other person who holds any property to the account of, or for, the bankrupt shall pay or deliver to the trustee all property in his possession or under his control which forms part of the bankrupt’s estate and which he is not by law entitled to retain as against the bankrupt or trustee.

4 If any person without reasonable excuse fails to comply with any obligation imposed by this section, he is guilty of a contempt of court and liable to be punished accordingly (in addition to any other punishment to which he may be subject).

^C500313 Charge on bankrupt’s home.¶

1 Where any property consisting of an interest in a dwelling house which is occupied by the bankrupt or by his spouse or former spouse or by his civil partner or former civil partner is comprised in the bankrupt’s estate and the trustee is, for any reason, unable for the time being to realise that property, the trustee may apply to the court for an order imposing a charge on the property for the benefit of the bankrupt’s estate.

2 If on an application under this section the court imposes a charge on any property, the benefit of that charge shall be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate and is enforceable , up to the charged value from time to time, for the payment of any amount which is payable otherwise than to the bankrupt out of the estate and of interest on that amount at the prescribed rate.

2A In subsection (2) the charged value means—

a the amount specified in the charging order as the value of the bankrupt’s interest in the property at the date of the order, plus

b interest on that amount from the date of the charging order at the prescribed rate.

2B In determining the value of an interest for the purposes of this section the court shall disregard any matter which it is required to disregard by the rules.

3 An order under this section made in respect of property vested in the trustee shall provide, in accordance with the rules, for the property to cease to be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate and, subject to the charge (and any prior charge), to vest in the bankrupt.

4 Subsection (1), (2), (4), (5) and (6) of section 3 of the Charging Orders Act 1979 (supplemental provisions with respect to charging orders) have effect in relation to orders under this section as in relation to charging orders under that Act.

5 But an order under section 3(5) of that Act may not vary a charged value.

^C501313A Low value home: application for sale, possession or charge¶

1 This section applies where—

a property comprised in the bankrupt’s estate consists of an interest in a dwelling-house which at the date of the bankruptcy was the sole or principal residence of—

i the bankrupt,

ii the bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner, or

iii a former spouse or former civil partner of the bankrupt, and

b the trustee applies for an order for the sale of the property, for an order for possession of the property or for an order under section 313 in respect of the property.

2 The court shall dismiss the application if the value of the interest is below the amount prescribed for the purposes of this subsection.

3 In determining the value of an interest for the purposes of this section the court shall disregard any matter which it is required to disregard by the order which prescribes the amount for the purposes of subsection (2).

^C502314 Powers of trustee.¶

1 The trustee may exercise any of the powers specified in Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 5.

2 ^F803... the trustee may appoint the bankrupt—

a to superintend the management of his estate or any part of it,

b to carry on his business (if any) for the benefit of his creditors, or

c in any other respect to assist in administering the estate in such manner and on such terms as the trustee may direct.

^F8043 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^F8044 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

5 Part III of Schedule 5 to this Act has effect with respect to the things which the trustee is able to do for the purposes of, or in connection with, the exercise of any of his powers under any of his Group of Parts.

6 Where the trustee (not being the official receiver) in exercise of the powers conferred on him by any provision in this Group of Parts—

a disposes of any property comprised in the bankrupt’s estate to an associate of the bankrupt, or

b employs a solicitor,

he shall, if there is for the time being a creditor’s committee, give notice to the committee of that exercise of his powers.

^C5037 Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (5) and Part III of Schedule 5, the trustee may, if he thinks fit, at any time seek a decision on a matter from the bankrupt’s creditors.Subject to the preceding provisions in this Group of Parts, he shall seek a decision on a matter if he is requested to do so by a creditor of the bankrupt and the request is made with the concurrence of not less than one-tenth, in value, of the bankrupt’s creditors (including the creditor making the request).

8 Nothing in this Act is to be construed as restricting the capacity of the trustee to exercise any of his powers outside England and Wales.

Disclaimer of onerous property¶

^C504^C505^C506315 Disclaimer (general power).¶

1 Subject as follows, the trustee may, by the giving of the prescribed notice, disclaim any onerous property and may do so notwithstanding that he has taken possession of it, endeavoured to sell it or otherwise exercised rights of ownership in relation to it.

2 The following is onerous property for the purposes of this section, that is to say—

a any unprofitable contract, and

b any other property comprised in the bankrupt’s estate which is unsaleable or not readily saleable, or is such that it may give rise to a liability to pay money or perform any other onerous act.

3 A disclaimer under this section—

a operates so as to determine, as from the date of the disclaimer, the rights, interests and liabilities of the bankrupt and his estate in or in respect of the property disclaimed, and

b discharges the trustee from all personal liability in respect of that property as from the commencement of his trusteeship,

but does not, except so far as is necessary for the purpose of releasing the bankrupt, the bankrupt’s estate and the trustee from any liability, affect the rights or liabilities of any other person.

4 A notice of disclaimer shall not be given under this section in respect of any property that has been claimed for the estate under section 307 (after-acquired property) or 308 (personal property of bankrupt exceeding reasonable replacement value) or 308A, except with the leave of the court.

5 Any person sustaining loss or damage in consequence of the operation of a disclaimer under this section is deemed to be a creditor of the bankrupt to the extent of the loss or damage and accordingly may prove for the loss or damage as a bankruptcy debt.

316 Notice requiring trustee’s decision. ^C507¶

1 Notice of disclaimer shall not be given under section 315 in respect of any property if—

a a person interested in the property has applied in writing to the trustee or one of his predecessors as trustee requiring the trustee or that predecessor to decide whether he will disclaim or not, and

b the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which that application was made has expired without a notice of disclaimer having been given under section 315 in respect of that property.

2 The trustee is deemed to have adopted any contract which by virtue of this section he is not entitled to disclaim.

^C509317 Disclaimer of leaseholds. ^C508¶

1 The disclaimer of any property of a leasehold nature does not take effect unless a copy of the disclaimer has been served (so far as the trustee is aware of their addresses) on every person claiming under the bankrupt as underlessee or mortgagee and either—

a no application under section 320 below is made with respect to the property before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day on which the last notice served under this subsection was served, or

b where such an application has been made, the court directs that the disclaimer is to take effect.

2 Where the court gives a direction under subsection (1)(b) it may also, instead of or in addition to any order it makes under section 320, make such orders with respect to fixtures, tenant’s improvements and other matters arising out of the lease as it thinks fit.

318 Disclaimer of dwelling house. ^C510¶

Without prejudice to section 317, the disclaimer of any property in a dwelling house does not take effect unless a copy of the disclaimer has been served (so far as the trustee is aware of their addresses) on every person in occupation of or claiming a right to occupy the dwelling house and either—

a no application under section 320 is made with respect to the property before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day on which the last notice served under this section was served, or

b where such an application has been made, the court directs that the disclaimer is to take effect.

319 Disclaimer of land subject to rentcharge. ^C511¶

1 The following applies where, in consequence of the disclaimer under section 315 of any land subject to a rentcharge, that land vests by operation of law in the Crown or any other person (referred to in the next subsection as “the proprietor”).

2 The proprietor, and the successors in title of the proprietor, are not subject to any personal liability in respect of any sums becoming due under the rentcharge, except sums becoming due after the proprietor, or some person claiming under or through the proprietor, has taken possession or control of the land or has entered into occupation of it.

320 Court order vesting disclaimed property. ^C512¶

1 This section and the next apply where the trustee has disclaimed property under section 315.

2 An application may be made to the court under this section by—

a any person who claims an interest in the disclaimed property,

b any person who is under any liability in respect of the disclaimed property, not being a liability discharged by the disclaimer, or

c where the disclaimed property is property in a dwelling house, any person who at the time when the bankruptcy application was made or (as the case may be) the bankruptcy petition was presented was in occupation of or entitled to occupy the dwelling house.

3 Subject as follows in this section and the next, the court may, on an application under this section, make an order on such terms as it thinks fit for the vesting of the disclaimed property in, or for its delivery to—

a a person entitled to it or a trustee for such a person,

b a person subject to such a liability as is mentioned in subsection (2)(b) or a trustee for such a person, or

4 The court shall not make an order by virtue of subsection (3)(b) except where it appears to the court that it would be just to do so for the purpose of compensating the person subject to the liability in respect of the disclaimer.

5 The effect of any order under this section shall be taken into account in assessing for the purposes of section 315(5) the extent of any loss or damage sustained by any person in consequence of the disclaimer.

6 An order under this section vesting property in any person need not be completed by any conveyance, assignment or transfer.

321 Order under s. 320 in respect of leaseholds. ^C513¶

1 The court shall not make an order under section 320 vesting property of a leasehold nature in any person, except on terms making that person—

a subject to the same liabilities and obligations as the bankrupt was subject to under the lease on the day the bankruptcy application was made or (as the case may be) the bankruptcy petition was presented, or

b if the court thinks fit, subject to the same liabilities and obligations as that person would be subject to if the lease had been assigned to him on that day.

2 For the purposes of an order under section 320 relating to only part of any property comprised in a lease, the requirements of subsection (1) apply as if the lease comprised only the property to which the order relates.

3 Where subsection (1) applies and no person is willing to accept an order under section 320 on the terms required by that subsection, the court may (by order under section 320) vest the estate or interest in the bankrupt in the property in any person who is liable (whether personally or in a representative capacity and whether alone or jointly with the bankrupt) to perform the lessee’s covenants in the lease.The court may by virtue of this subsection vest that estate and interest in such a person freed and discharged from all estates, incumbrances and interests created by the bankrupt.

4 Where subsection (1) applies and a person declines to accept any order under section 320, that person shall be excluded from all interest in the property.

322 Proof of debts. ^C514¶

1 Subject to this section and the next, the proof of any bankruptcy debt by a secured or unsecured creditor of the bankrupt and the admission or rejection of any proof shall take place in accordance with the rules.

2 Where a bankruptcy debt bears interest, that interest is provable as part of the debt except in so far as it is payable in respect of any period after the commencement of the bankruptcy.

3 The trustee shall estimate the value of any bankruptcy debt which, by reason of its being subject to any contingency or contingencies or for any other reason, does not bear a certain value.

4 Where the value of a bankruptcy debt is estimated by the trustee under subsection (3) or, by virtue of section 303 in Chapter III, by the court, the amount provable in the bankruptcy in respect of the debt is the amount of the estimate.

^C516323 Mutual credit and set-off. ^C515¶

1 This section applies where before the commencement of the bankruptcy there have been mutual credits, mutual debts or other mutual dealings between the bankruptcy and any creditor of the bankrupt proving or claiming to prove for a bankruptcy debt.

2 An account shall be taken of what is due from each party to the other in respect of the mutual dealings and the sums due from one party shall be set off against the sums due from the other.

3 Sums due from the bankrupt to another party shall not be included in the account taken under subsection (2) if that other party had notice at the time they became due that proceedings on a bankruptcy application relating to the bankrupt were ongoing or that a bankruptcy petition relating to the bankrupt was pending.

4 Only the balance (if any) of the account taken under subsection (2) is provable as a bankruptcy debt or, as the case may be, to be paid to the trustee as part of the bankrupt’s estate.

324 Distribution by means of dividend. ^C517¶

1 Whenever the trustee has sufficient funds in hand for the purpose he shall, subject to the retention of such sums as may be necessary for the expenses of the bankruptcy, declare and distribute dividends among the creditors in respect of the bankruptcy debts which they have respectively proved.

2 The trustee shall give notice of his intention to declare and distribute a dividend.

3 Where the trustee has declared a dividend, he shall give notice of the dividend and of how it is proposed to distribute it; and a notice given under this subsection shall contain the prescribed particulars of the bankrupt’s estate.

4 In the calculation and distribution of a dividend the trustee shall make provision—

a for any bankruptcy debts which appear to him to be due to persons who, by reason of the distance of their place of residence, may not have had sufficient time to tender and establish their proofs,

b for any bankruptcy debts which are the subject of claims which have not yet been determined, and

c for disputed proofs and claims.

325 Claims by unsatisfied creditors. ^C518¶

1 A creditor who has not proved his debt before the declaration of any dividend is not entitled to disturb, by reason that he has not participated in it, the distribution of that dividend or any other dividend declared before his debt was proved, but—

a when he has proved that debt he is entitled to be paid, out of any money for the time being available for the payment of any further dividend, any dividend or dividends which he has failed to receive; and

b any dividend or dividends payable under paragraph (a) shall be paid before that money is applied to the payment of any such further dividend.

2 No action lies against the trustee for a dividend,but if the trustee refuses to pay a dividend the court may, if it thinks fit, order him to pay it and also to pay, out of his own money—

a interest on the dividend, at the rate for the time being specified in section 17 of the ^M22JudgmentsAct 1838, from the time it was withheld, and

b the costs of the proceedings in which the order to pay is made.

326 Distribution of property in specie. ^C519¶

1 Without prejudice to sections 315 to 319 (disclaimer), the trustee may, with the permission of the creditors’ committee, divide in its existing form amongst the bankrupt’s creditors, according to its estimated value, any property which from its peculiar nature or other special circumstances cannot be readily or advantageously sold.

2 A permission given for the purposes of subsection (1) shall not be a general permission but shall relate to a particular proposed exercise of the power in question; and a person dealing with the trustee in good faith and for value is not to be concerned to enquire whether any permission required by subsection (1) has been given.

3 Where the trustee has done anything without the permission required by subsection (1), the court or the creditors’ committee may, for the purpose of enabling him to meet his expenses out of the bankrupt’s estate, ratify what the trustee has done.But the committee shall not do so unless it is satisfied that the trustee acted in a case of urgency and has sought its ratification without undue delay.

327 Distribution in criminal bankruptcy. ^C520¶

Where the bankruptcy order was made on a petition under section 264(1)(d) (criminal bankruptcy), no distribution shall be made under sections 324 to 326 so long as an appeal is pending (within the meaning of section 277) against the bankrupt’s conviction of any offence by virtue of which the criminal bankruptcy order on which the petition was based was made.

^C521^C522^C1087^C1287328 Priority of debts.¶

^C523^C5241 In the distribution of the bankrupt’s estate, his preferential debts ^F771... shall be paid in priority to other debts.

1A Ordinary preferential debts rank equally among themselves after the expenses of the bankruptcy and shall be paid in full, unless the bankrupt’s estate is insufficient to meet them, in which case they abate in equal proportions between themselves.

1B Secondary preferential debts rank equally among themselves after the ordinary preferential debts and shall be paid in full, unless the bankrupt’s estate is insufficient to meet them, in which case they abate in equal proportions between themselves.

^F772^C523^C5242 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^C5233 Debts which are neither preferential debts nor debts to which the next section applies also rank equally between themselves and, after the preferential debts, shall be paid in full unless the bankrupt’s estate is insufficient for meeting them, in which case they abate in equal proportions between themselves.

3A If the bankrupt is a relevant financial institution, subsection (3) does not apply but—

a the bankrupt’s ordinary non-preferential debts shall be paid in priority to the bankrupt’s secondary non-preferential debts,

b the bankrupt’s ordinary non-preferential debts rank equally among themselves after the secondary preferential debts and shall be paid in full, unless the bankrupt’s estate is insufficient to meet them, in which case they abate in equal proportions,

c the bankrupt’s secondary non-preferential debts shall be paid in priority to the bankrupt’s tertiary non-preferential debts, and

d the bankrupt’s secondary non-preferential debts rank equally among themselves after the ordinary non-preferential debts and shall be paid in full, unless the bankrupt’s estate is insufficient to meet them, in which case they abate in equal proportions.

See section 387A for definitions relevant to this subsection.

^C5254 Any surplus remaining after the payment of the debts —

a where subsection (3) applies, that are preferential or rank equally under that subsection, or

b where subsection (3A) applies, that are preferential or are referred to in that subsection,

shall be applied in paying interest on those debts in respect of the periods during which they have been outstanding since the commencement of the bankruptcy; and interest on preferential debts ranks equally with interest on debts other than preferential debts.

^C5255 The rate of interest payable under subsection (4) in respect of any debt is whichever is the greater of the following—

a the rate specified in section 17 of the ^M23Judgments Act 1838 at the commencement of the bankruptcy, and

b the rate applicable to that debt apart from the bankruptcy.

^C5236 This section and the next are without prejudice to any provision of this Act or any other Act under which the payment of any debt or the making of any other payment is, in the event of bankruptcy, to have a particular priority or to be postponed.

7 In this section “preferential debts”, “ordinary preferential debts” and “secondary preferential debts” each has the meaning given in section 386 in Part 12.

^C526329 Debts to spouse.¶

1 This section applies to bankruptcy debts owed in respect of credit provided by a person who (whether or not the bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner at the time the credit was provided) was the bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner at the commencement of the bankruptcy.

2 Such debts—

a rank in priority after the ^F1237... interest required to be paid in pursuance of section 328(4), and

b are payable with interest at the rate specified in section 328(5) in respect of the period during which they have been outstanding since the commencement of the bankruptcy;

and the interest payable under paragraph (b) has the same priority as the debts on which it is payable.

330 ^C527 Final distribution. ¶

1 When the trustee has realised all the bankrupt’s estate or so much of it as can, in the trustee’s opinion, be realised without needlessly protracting the trusteeship, he shall give notice in the prescribed manner either—

a of his intention to declare a final dividend, or

b that no dividend, or further dividend, will be declared.

1A A notice under subsection (1)(b) need not be given to opted-out creditors.

2 The notice under subsection (1) shall contain the prescribed particulars and shall require claims against the bankrupt’s estate to be established by a date (“the final date”) specified in the notice.

3 The court may, on the application of any person, postpone the final date.

4 After the final date, the trustee shall—

a defray any outstanding expenses of the bankruptcy out of the bankrupt’s estate, and

^C1007b if he intends to declare a final dividend, declare and distribute that dividend without regard to the claim of any person in respect of a debt not already proved in the bankruptcy.

5 If a surplus remains after payment in full and with interest of all the bankrupt’s creditors and the payment of the expenses of the bankruptcy, the bankrupt is entitled to the surplus.

^C530332 Saving for bankrupt’s home.¶

1 This section applies where—

a there is comprised in the bankrupt’s estate property consisting of an interest in a dwelling house which is occupied by the bankrupt or by his spouse or former spouse or by his civil partner or former civil partner, and

b the trustee has been unable for any reason to realise that property.

2 The trustee shall not give notice under section 331(2) unless either—

b the court has declined, on an application under that section, to make such an order, or

c the Secretary of State has issued a certificate to the trustee stating that it would be inappropriate or inexpedient for such an application to be made in the case in question.

Supplemental¶

333 Duties of bankrupt in relation to trustee. ^C531¶

1 The bankrupt shall—

a give to the trustee such information as to his affairs,

b attend on the trustee at such times, and

c do all such other things,

as the trustee may for the purposes of carrying out his functions under any of this Group of Parts reasonably require.

2 Where at any time after the commencement of the bankruptcy any property is acquired by, or devolves upon, the bankrupt or there is an increase of the bankrupt’s income, the bankrupt shall, within the prescribed period, give the trustee notice of the property or, as the case may be, of the increase.

3 Subsection (1) applies to a bankrupt after his discharge.

4 If the bankrupt without reasonable excuse fails to comply with any obligation imposed by this section, he is guilty of a contempt of court and liable to be punished accordingly (in addition to any other punishment to which he may be subject).

334 Stay of distribution in case of second bankruptcy. ^C532¶

1 This section and the next apply where a bankruptcy order is made against an undischarged bankrupt; and in both sections—

a “the later bankruptcy” means the bankruptcy arising from that order,

b “the earlier bankruptcy” means the bankruptcy (or, as the case may be, most recent bankruptcy) from which the bankrupt has not been discharged at the commencement of the later bankruptcy, and

c “the existing trustee” means the trustee (if any) of the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the earlier bankruptcy.

2 Where the existing trustee has been given the prescribed notice of the making of the application or (as the case may be) the presentation of the petition of the later bankruptcy, any distribution or other disposition by him of anything to which the next subsection applies, if made after the giving of the notice, is void except to the extent that it was made with the consent of the court or is or was subsequently ratified by the court.This is without prejudice to section 284 (restrictions on dispositions of property following bankruptcy order).

3 This subsection applies to—

a any property which is vested in the existing trustee under section 307(3) (after-acquired property);

b any money paid to the existing trustee in pursuance of an income payments order under section 310; and

c any property or money, which is, or in the hands of the existing trustee represents, the proceeds of sale or application of property or money falling within paragraph (a) or (b) of this subsection.

335 Adjustment between earlier and later bankruptcy estates. ^C533¶

1 With effect from the commencement of the later bankruptcy anthing to which section 334(3) applies which, immediately before the commencement of that bankruptcy, is comprised in the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the earlier bankruptcy is to be treated as comprised in the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the later bankruptcy and, until there is a trustee of that estate, is to be dealt with by the existing trustee in accordance with the rules.

2 Any sums which in pursuance of an income payments order under section 310 are payable after the commencement of the later bankruptcy to the existing trustee shall form part of the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the later bankruptcy; and the court may give such consequential directions for the modification of the order as it thinks fit.

3 Anything comprised in a bankrupt’s estate by virtue of subsection (1) or (2) is so comprised subject to a first charge in favour of the existing trustee for any bankruptcy expenses incurred by him in relation thereto.

4 Except as provided above and in section 334, property which is, or by virtue of section 308 (personal property of bankrupt exceeding reasonable replacement value) or section 308A (vesting in trustee of certain tenancies) is capable of being, comprised in the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the earlier bankruptcy, or of any bankruptcy prior to it, shall not be comprised in his estate for the purposes of the later bankruptcy.

5 The creditors of the bankrupt in the earlier bankruptcy and the creditors of the bankrupt in any bankruptcy prior to the earlier one, are not to be creditors of his in the later bankruptcy in respect of the same debts; but the existing trustee may prove in the later bankruptcy for—

a the unsatisfied balance of the debts (including any debt under this subsection) provable against the bankrupt’s estate in the earlier bankruptcy;

b any interest payable on that balance; and

c any unpaid expenses of the earlier bankruptcy.

6 Any amount provable under subsection (5) ranks in priority after all the other debts provable in the later bankruptcy and after interest on those debts and, accordingly, shall not be paid unless those debts and that interest have first been paid in full.

1 Any application by a trustee of a bankrupt’s estate under section 14 of the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 (powers of court in relation to trusts of land) for an order under that section for the sale of land shall be made to the court having jurisdiction in relation to the bankruptcy.

2 On such an application the court shall make such order as it thinks just and reasonable having regard to—

a the interests of the bankrupt’s creditors;

b where the application is made in respect of land which includes a dwelling house which is or has been the home of the bankrupt or the bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner or former spouse or former civil partner—

i the conduct of the spouse, civil partner, former spouse or former civil partner, so far as contributing to the bankruptcy,

ii the needs and financial resources of the spouse, civil partner, former spouse or former civil partner, and

iii the needs of any children; and

c all the circumstances of the case other than the needs of the bankrupt.

3 Where such an application is made after the end of the period of one year beginning with the first vesting under Chapter IV of this Part of the bankrupt’s estate in a trustee, the court shall assume, unless the circumstances of the case are exceptional, that the interests of the bankrupt’s creditors outweigh all other considerations.

4 The powers conferred on the court by this section are exercisable on an application whether it is made before or after the commencement of this section.

Rights of occupation¶

336 Rights of occupation etc. of bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner.¶

1 Nothing occurring in the initial period of the bankruptcy (that is to say, the period beginning with the day of the making of the bankruptcy application or (as the case may be) the presentation of the bankruptcy petition and ending with the vesting of the bankrupt’s estate in a trustee) is to be taken as having given rise to any home rights under Part IV of the Family Law Act 1996 in relation to a dwelling house comprised in the bankrupt’s estate.

2 Where a spouse’s or civil partner’s home rightsunder the Act of 1996 are a charge on the estate or interest of the other spouse or civil partner, or of trustees for the other spouse or civil partner, and the other spouse or civil partner is made bankrupt—

a the charge continues to subsist notwithstanding the bankruptcy and, subject to the provisions of that Act, binds the trustee of the bankrupts’s estate and persons deriving title under the trustee, and

b any application for an order under section 33 of that Act shall be made to the court having jurisdiction in relation to the bankruptcy.

4 On such an application as is mentioned in subsection (2) ^F340. . . the court shall make such order under section 33 of the Act of 1996. . . as it thinks just and reasonable having regard to—

a the interests of the bankrupt’s creditors,

b the conduct of the spouse or former spouse or civil partner or former civil partner, so far as contributing to the bankruptcy,

c the needs and financial resources of the spouse or former spouse or civil partner or former civil partner,

d the needs of any children, and

e all the circumstances of the case other than the needs of the bankrupt.

5 Where such an application is made after the end of the period of one year beginning with the first vesting under Chapter IV of this Part of the bankrupt’s estate in a trustee, the court shall assume, unless the circumstances of the case are exceptional, that the interests of the bankrupt’s creditors outweigh all other considerations.

337 Rights of occupation of bankrupt.¶

1 This section applies where—

a a person who is entitled to occupy a dwelling house by virtue of a beneficial estate or interest is made bankrupt, and

b any persons under the age of 18 with whom that person had at some time occupied that dwelling house had their home with that person at the time when the bankruptcy application was made or (as the case may be) the bankruptcy petition was presented and at the commencement of the bankruptcy.

2 Whether or not the bankrupt’s spouse or civil partner (if any) has home rightsunder Part IV of the Family Law Act 1996—

a the bankrupt has the followng rights as against the trustee of his estate—

i if in occupation, a right not to be evicted or excluded from the dwelling house or any part of it, except with the leave of the court,

ii if not in occupation, a right with the leave of the court to enter into and occupy the dwelling house, and

b the bankrupt’s rights are a charge, having the like priority as an equitable interest created immediately before the commencement of the bankruptcy, on so much of his estate or interest in the dwelling house as vests in the trustee.

3 The Act of 1996 has effect, with the necessary modifications, as if—

a the rights conferred by paragraph (a) of subsection (2) were home rights under that Act,

b any application for such leave as is mentioned in that paragraph were an application for an order under section 33 of that Act, and

c any charge under paragraph (b) of that subsection on the estate or interest of the trustee were a charge under that Act on the estate or interest of a spouse or civil partner.

4 Any application for leave such as is mentioned in subsection (2)(a) or otherwise by virtue of this section for an order under section 33 of the Act of 1996 shall be made to the court having jurisdiction in relation to the bankruptcy.

5 On such an application the court shall make such order under section 33 of the Act of 1996 as it thinks just and reasonable having regard to the interests of the creditors, to the bankrupt’s financial resources, to the needs of the children and to all the circumstances of the case other than the needs of the bankrupt.

6 Where such an application is made after the end of the period of one year beginning with the first vesting (under Chapter IV of this Part) of the bankrupt’s estate in a trustee, the court shall assume, unless the circumstances of the case are exceptional, that the interests of the bankrupt’s creditors outweigh all other considerations.

338 Payments in respect of premises occupied by bankrupt.¶

Where any premises comprised in a bankrupt’s estate are occupied by him (whether by virtue of the preceding section or otherwise) on condition that he makes payments towards satisfying any liability arising under a mortgage of the premises or otherwise towards the outgoings of the premises, the bankrupt does not, by virtue of those payments, acquire any interest in the premises.

Adjustment of prior transactions, etc.¶

^C534^C535^C536^C537339 Transactions at an undervalue.¶

1 Subject as follows in this section and sections 341 and 342, where an individual is made bankrupt and he has at a relevant time (defined in section 341) entered into a transaction with any person at an undervalue, the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate may apply to the court for an order under this section.

2 The court shall, on such an application, make such order as it thinks fit for restoring the position to what it would have been if that individual had not entered into that transaction.

3 For the purposes of this section and sections 341 and 342, an individual enters into a transaction with a person at an undervalue if—

a he makes a gift to that person or he otherwise enters into a transaction with that person on terms that provide for him to receive no consideration,

b he enters into a transaction with that person in consideration of marriage or the formation of a civil partnership, or

c he enters into a transaction with that person for a consideration the value of which, in money or money’s worth, is significantly less than the value, in money or money’s worth, of the consideration provided by the individual.

^C538^C539^C540340 Preferences.¶

1 Subject as follows in this and the next two sections, where an individual is made bankrupt and he has at a relevant time (defined in section 341) given a preference to any person, the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate may apply to the court for an order under this section.

2 The court shall, on such an application, make such order as it thinks fit for restoring the position to what it would have been if that individual had not given that preference.

3 For the purposes of this and the next two sections, an individual gives a preference to a person if—

a that person is one of the individual’s creditors or a surety or guarantor for any of his debts or other liabilities, and

b the individual does anything or suffers anything to be done which (in either case) has the effect of putting that person into a position which, in the event of the individual’s bankruptcy, will be better than the position he would have been in if that thing had not been done.

4 The court shall not make an order under this section in respect of a preference given to any person unless the individual who gave the preference was influenced in deciding to give it by a desire to produce in relation to that person the effect mentioned in subsection (3)(b) above.

5 An individual who has given a preference to a person who, at the time the preference was given, was an associate of his (otherwise than by reason only of being his employee) is presumed, unless the contrary is shown, to have been influenced in deciding to give it by such a desire as is mentioned in subsection (4).

6 The fact that something has been done in pursuance of the order of a court does not, without more, prevent the doing or suffering of that thing from constituting the giving of a preference.

^C541^C1001341 “Relevant time” under ss. 339, 340.¶

1 Subject as follows, the time at which an individual enters into a transaction at an undervalue or gives a preference is a relevant time if the transaction is entered into or the preference given—

a in the case of a transaction at an undervalue, at a time in the period of 5 years ending with the day of the making of the bankruptcy application as a result of which, or (as the case may be) the presentation of the bankruptcy petition on which, the individual is made bankrupt,

b in the case of a preference which is not a transaction at an undervalue and is given to a person who is an associate of the individual (otherwise than by reason only of being his employee), at a time in the period of 2 years ending with that day, and

c in any other case of a preference which is not a transaction at an undervalue, at a time in the period of 6 months ending with that day.

2 Where an individual enters into a transaction at an undervalue or gives a preference at a time mentioned in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of subsection (1) (not being, in the case of a transaction at an undervalue, a time less than 2 years before the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (a)), that time is not a relevant time for the purposes of sections 339 and 340 unless the individual—

a is insolvent at that time, or

b becomes insolvent in consequence of the transaction or preference;

but the requirements of this subsection are presumed to be satisfied, unless the contrary is shown, in relation to any transaction at an undervalue which is entered into by an individual with a person who is an associate of his (otherwise than by reason only of being his employee).

3 For the purposes of subsection (2), an individual is insolvent if—

a he is unable to pay his debts as they fall due, or

b the value of his assets is less than the amount of his liabilities, taking into account his contingent and prospective liabilities.

4 A transaction entered into or preference given by a person who is subsequently adjudged bankrupt on a petition under section 264(1)(d) (criminal bankruptcy) is to be treated as having been entered into or given at a relevant time for the purposes of sections 339 and 340 if it was entered into or given at any time on or after the date specified for the purposes of this subsection in the criminal bankruptcy order on which the petition was based.

5 No order shall be made under section 339 or 340 by virtue of subsection (4) of this section where an appeal is pending (within the meaning of section 277) against the individual’s conviction of any offence by virtue of which the criminal bankruptcy order was made.

^C542342 Orders under ss. 339, 340.¶

1 Without prejudice to the generality of section 339(2) or 340(2), an order under either of those sections with respect to a transaction or preference entered into or given by an individual who is subsequently made bankrupt may (subject as follows)—

a require any property transferred as part of the transaction, or in connection with the giving of the preference, to be vested in the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate as part of that estate;

b require any property to be so vested it if represents in any person’s hands the application either of the proceeds of sale of property so transferred or of money so transferred;

c release or discharge (in whole or in part) any security given by the individual;

d require any person to pay, in respect of benefits received by him from the individual, such sums to the trustee of his estate as the court may direct;

e provide for any surety or guarantor whose obligations to any person were released or discharged (in whole or in part) under the transaction or by the giving of the preference to be under such new or revived obligations to that person as the court thinks appropriate;

g provide for the extent to which any person whose property is vested by the order in the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate, or on whom obligations are imposed by the order, is to be able to prove in the bankruptcy for debts or other liabilities which arose from, or were released or discharged (in whole or in part) under or by, the transaction or the giving of the preference.

2 An order under section 339 or 340 may affect the property of, or impose any obligation on, any person whether or not he is the person with whom the individual in question entered into the transaction or, as the case may be the person to whom the preference was given; but such an order—

a shall not prejudice any interest in property which was acquired from a person other than that individual and was acquired in good faith and for value, or prejudice any interest deriving from such an interest, and

b shall not require a person who received a benefit from the transaction or preference in good faith and for value to pay a sum to the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate except where he was a party to the transaction or the payment is to be in respect of a preference given to that person at a time when he was a creditor of that individual.

2A Where a person has acquired an interest in property from a person other than the individual in question, or has received a benefit from the transaction or preference, and at the time of that acquisition or receipt—

a he had notice of the relevant surrounding circumstances and of the relevant proceedings, or

b he was an associate of, or was connected with, either the individual in question or the person with whom that individual entered into the transaction or to whom that individual gave the preference,

3 Any sums required to be paid to the trustee in accordance with an order under section 339 or 340 shall be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate.

4 For the purposes of subsection (2A)(a), the relevant surrounding circumstances are (as the case may require)—

a the fact that the individual in question entered into the transaction at an undervalue; or

b the circumstances which amounted to the giving of the preference by the individual in question.

5 For the purposes of subsection (2A)(a), a person has notice of the relevant proceedings if he has notice—

a of the fact that the bankruptcy application as a result of which, or (as the case may be) the bankruptcy petition on which, the individual in question is made bankrupt has been made or presented; or

b of the fact that the individual in question has been made bankrupt.

6 Section 249 in Part VII of this Act shall apply for the purposes of subsection (2A)(b) as it applies for the purposes of the first Group of Parts.

^C543342A Recovery of excessive pension contributions.¶

1 Where an individual who is made bankrupt—

a has rights under an approved pension arrangement, or

b has excluded rights under an unapproved pension arrangement,

the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate may apply to the court for an order under this section.

2 If the court is satisfied—

a that the rights under the arrangement are to any extent, and whether directly or indirectly, the fruits of relevant contributions, and

b that the making of any of the relevant contributions (“the excessive contributions”) has unfairly prejudiced the individual’s creditors,

the court may make such order as it thinks fit for restoring the position to what it would have been had the excessive contributions not been made.

3 Subsection (4) applies where the court is satisfied that the value of the rights under the arrangement is, as a result of rights of the individual under the arrangement or any other pension arrangement having at any time become subject to a debit under section 29(1)(a) of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (debits giving effect to pension-sharing), less than it would otherwise have been.

4 Where this subsection applies—

a any relevant contributions which were represented by the rights which became subject to the debit shall, for the purposes of subsection (2), be taken to be contributions of which the rights under the arrangement are the fruits, and

b where the relevant contributions represented by the rights under the arrangement (including those so represented by virtue of paragraph (a)) are not all excessive contributions, relevant contributions which are represented by the rights under the arrangement otherwise than by virtue of paragraph (a) shall be treated as excessive contributions before any which are so represented by virtue of that paragraph.

5 In subsections (2) to (4) “relevant contributions” means contributions to the arrangement or any other pension arrangement—

a which the individual has at any time made on his own behalf, or

b which have at any time been made on his behalf.

6 The court shall, in determining whether it is satisfied under subsection (2)(b), consider in particular—

a whether any of the contributions were made for the purpose of putting assets beyond the reach of the individual’s creditors or any of them, and

b whether the total amount of any contributions—

i made by or on behalf of the individual to pension arrangements, and

ii represented (whether directly or indirectly) by rights under approved pension arrangements or excluded rights under unapproved pension arrangements,

is an amount which is excessive in view of the individual’s circumstances when those contributions were made.

7 For the purposes of this section and sections 342B and 342C (“the recovery provisions”), rights of an individual under an unapproved pension arrangement are excluded rights if they are rights which are excluded from his estate by virtue of regulations under section 12 of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999.

8 In the recovery provisions—

“approved pension arrangement” has the same meaning as in section 11 of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999;
“unapproved pension arrangement” has the same meaning as in section 12 of that Act.

342B Orders under section 342A.¶

1 Without prejudice to the generality of section 342A(2), an order under section 342A may include provision—

a requiring the person responsible for the arrangement to pay an amount to the individual’s trustee in bankruptcy,

b adjusting the liabilities of the arrangement in respect of the individual,

c adjusting any liabilities of the arrangement in respect of any other person that derive, directly or indirectly, from rights of the individual under the arrangement,

d for the recovery by the person responsible for the arrangement (whether by deduction from any amount which that person is ordered to pay or otherwise) of costs incurred by that person in complying in the bankrupt’s case with any requirement under section 342C(1) or in giving effect to the order.

2 In subsection (1), references to adjusting the liabilities of the arrangement in respect of a person include (in particular) reducing the amount of any benefit or future benefit to which that person is entitled under the arrangement.

3 In subsection (1)(c), the reference to liabilities of the arrangement does not include liabilities in respect of a person which result from giving effect to an order or provision falling within section 28(1) of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (pension sharing orders and agreements).

4 The maximum amount which the person responsible for an arrangement may be required to pay by an order under section 342A is the lesser of—

a the amount of the excessive contributions, and

b the value of the individual’s rights under the arrangement (if the arrangement is an approved pension arrangement) or of his excluded rights under the arrangement (if the arrangement is an unapproved pension arrangement).

5 An order under section 342A which requires the person responsible for an arrangement to pay an amount (“the restoration amount”) to the individual’s trustee in bankruptcy must provide for the liabilities of the arrangement to be correspondingly reduced.

6 For the purposes of subsection (5), liabilities are correspondingly reduced if the difference between—

a the amount of the liabilities immediately before the reduction, and

b the amount of the liabilities immediately after the reduction,

is equal to the restoration amount.

7 An order under section 342A in respect of an arrangement—

a shall be binding on the person responsible for the arrangement, and

b overrides provisions of the arrangement to the extent that they conflict with the provisions of the order.

342C Orders under section 342A: supplementary.¶

1 The person responsible for—

a an approved pension arrangement under which a bankrupt has rights,

b an unapproved pension arrangement under which a bankrupt has excluded rights, or

c a pension arrangement under which a bankrupt has at any time had rights,

shall, on the bankrupt’s trustee in bankruptcy making a written request, provide the trustee with such information about the arrangement and rights as the trustee may reasonably require for, or in connection with, the making of applications under section 342A.

2 Nothing in—

a any provision of section 159 of the Pension Schemes Act 1993 or section 91 of the Pensions Act 1995 (which prevent assignment and the making of orders that restrain a person from receiving anything which he is prevented from assigning),

b any provision of any enactment (whether passed or made before or after the passing of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999) corresponding to any of the provisions mentioned in paragraph (a), or

c any provision of the arrangement in question corresponding to any of those provisions,

applies to a court exercising its powers under section 342A.

3 Where any sum is required by an order under section 342A to be paid to the trustee in bankruptcy, that sum shall be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate.

4 Regulations may, for the purposes of the recovery provisions, make provision about the calculation and verification of—

a any such value as is mentioned in section 342B(4)(b);

b any such amounts as are mentioned in section 342B(6)(a) and (b).

5 The power conferred by subsection (4) includes power to provide for calculation or verification—

a in such manner as may, in the particular case, be approved by a prescribed person; or

b in accordance with guidance from time to time prepared by a prescribed person.

6 References in the recovery provisions to the person responsible for a pension arrangement are to—

a the trustees, managers or provider of the arrangement, or

b the person having functions in relation to the arrangement corresponding to those of a trustee, manager or provider.

7 In this section and sections 342A and 342B—

“prescribed” means prescribed by regulations;
“the recovery provisions” means this section and sections 342A and 342B;
“regulations” means regulations made by the Secretary of State.

8 Regulations under the recovery provisions may—

a make different provision for different cases;

b contain such incidental, supplemental and transitional provisions as appear to the Secretary of State necessary or expedient.

9 Regulations under the recovery provisions shall be made by statutory instrument subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.

^C544342D Recovery of excessive contributions in pension-sharing cases.¶

1 For the purposes of sections 339, 341 and 342, a pension-sharing transaction shall be taken—

a to be a transaction, entered into by the transferor with the transferee, by which the appropriate amount is transferred by the transferor to the transferee; and

b to be capable of being a transaction entered into at an undervalue only so far as it is a transfer of so much of the appropriate amount as is recoverable.

2 For the purposes of sections 340 to 342, a pension-sharing transaction shall be taken—

a to be something (namely a transfer of the appropriate amount to the transferee) done by the transferor; and

b to be capable of being a preference given to the transferee only so far as it is a transfer of so much of the appropriate amount as is recoverable.

3 If on an application under section 339 or 340 any question arises as to whether, or the extent to which, the appropriate amount in the case of a pension-sharing transaction is recoverable, the question shall be determined in accordance with subsections (4) to (8).

4 The court shall first determine the extent (if any) to which the transferor’s rights under the shared arrangement at the time of the transaction appear to have been (whether directly or indirectly) the fruits of contributions (“personal contributions”)—

a which the transferor has at any time made on his own behalf, or

b which have at any time been made on the transferor’s behalf,

to the shared arrangement or any other pension arrangement.

5 Where it appears that those rights were to any extent the fruits of personal contributions, the court shall then determine the extent (if any) to which those rights appear to have been the fruits of personal contributions whose making has unfairly prejudiced the transferor’s creditors (“the unfair contributions”).

6 If it appears to the court that the extent to which those rights were the fruits of the unfair contributions is such that the transfer of the appropriate amount could have been made out of rights under the shared arrangement which were not the fruits of the unfair contributions, then the appropriate amount is not recoverable.

7 If it appears to the court that the transfer could not have been wholly so made, then the appropriate amount is recoverable to the extent to which it appears to the court that the transfer could not have been so made.

8 In making the determination mentioned in subsection (5) the court shall consider in particular—

a whether any of the personal contributions were made for the purpose of putting assets beyond the reach of the transferor’s creditors or any of them, and

b whether the total amount of any personal contributions represented, at the time the pension-sharing transaction was made, by rights under pension arrangements is an amount which is excessive in view of the transferor’s circumstances when those contributions were made.

9 In this section and sections 342E and 342F—

“appropriate amount”, in relation to a pension-sharing transaction, means the appropriate amount in relation to that transaction for the purposes of section 29(1) of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (creation of pension credits and debits);
“pension-sharing transaction” means an order or provision falling within section 28(1) of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (orders and agreements which activate pension-sharing);
“shared arrangement”, in relation to a pension-sharing transaction, means the pension arrangement to which the transaction relates;
“transferee”, in relation to a pension-sharing transaction, means the person for whose benefit the transaction is made;
“transferor”, in relation to a pension-sharing transaction, means the person to whose rights the transaction relates.

^C545^F361342E Orders under section 339 or 340 in respect of pension-sharing transactions.¶

1 This section and section 342F apply if the court is making an order under section 339 or 340 in a case where—

a the transaction or preference is, or is any part of, a pension-sharing transaction, and

b the transferee has rights under a pension arrangement (“the destination arrangement”, which may be the shared arrangement or any other pension arrangement) that are derived, directly or indirectly, from the pension-sharing transaction.

2 Without prejudice to the generality of section 339(2) or 340(2), or of section 342, the order may include provision—

a requiring the person responsible for the destination arrangement to pay an amount to the transferor’s trustee in bankruptcy,

b adjusting the liabilities of the destination arrangement in respect of the transferee,

c adjusting any liabilities of the destination arrangement in respect of any other person that derive, directly or indirectly, from rights of the transferee under the destination arrangement,

d for the recovery by the person responsible for the destination arrangement (whether by deduction from any amount which that person is ordered to pay or otherwise) of costs incurred by that person in complying in the transferor’s case with any requirement under section 342F(1) or in giving effect to the order,

e for the recovery, from the transferor’s trustee in bankruptcy, by the person responsible for a pension arrangement, of costs incurred by that person in complying in the transferor’s case with any requirement under section 342F(2) or (3).

3 In subsection (2), references to adjusting the liabilities of the destination arrangement in respect of a person include (in particular) reducing the amount of any benefit or future benefit to which that person is entitled under the arrangement.

4 The maximum amount which the person responsible for the destination arrangement may be required to pay by the order is the smallest of—

a so much of the appropriate amount as, in accordance with section 342D, is recoverable,

b so much (if any) of the amount of the unfair contributions (within the meaning given by section 342D(5)) as is not recoverable by way of an order under section 342A containing provision such as is mentioned in section 342B(1)(a), and

c the value of the transferee’s rights under the destination arrangement so far as they are derived, directly or indirectly, from the pension-sharing transaction.

5 If the order requires the person responsible for the destination arrangement to pay an amount (“the restoration amount”) to the transferor’s trustee in bankruptcy it must provide for the liabilities of the arrangement to be correspondingly reduced.

6 For the purposes of subsection (5), liabilities are correspondingly reduced if the difference between—

a the amount of the liabilities immediately before the reduction, and

b the amount of the liabilities immediately after the reduction,

is equal to the restoration amount.

7 The order—

a shall be binding on the person responsible for the destination arrangement, and

b overrides provisions of the destination arrangement to the extent that they conflict with the provisions of the order.

1 This section applies where a person is made bankrupt who is or has been a party to a transaction for, or involving, the provision to him of credit.

2 The court may, on the application of the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate, make an order with respect to the transaction if the transaction is or was extortionate and was not entered into more than 3 years before the commencement of the bankruptcy.

3 For the purposes of this section a transaction is extortionate if, having regard to the risk accepted by the person providing the credit—

a the terms of it are or were such as to require grossly exorbitant payments to be made (whether unconditionally or in certain contingencies) in respect of the provision of the credit, or

b it otherwise grossly contravened ordinary principles of fair dealing;

and it shall be presumed, unless the contrary is proved, that a transaction, with respect to which an application is made under this section is or, as the case may be, was extortionate.

4 An order under this section with respect to any transaction may contain such one or more of the following as the court thinks fit, that is to say—

a provision setting aside the whole or part of any obligation created by the transaction;

b provision otherwise varying the terms of the transaction or varying the terms on which any security for the purposes of the transaction is held;

c provision requiring any person who is or was party to the transaction to pay to the trustee any sums paid to that person, by virtue of the transaction, by the bankrupt;

d provision requiring any person to surrender to the trustee any property held by him as security for the purposes of the transaction;

e provision directing accounts to be taken between any persons.

5 Any sums or property required to be paid or surrendered to the trustee in accordance with an order under this section shall be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate.

6 ^F364. . . ^F364. . . the powers conferred by this section are exercisable in relation to any transaction concurrently with any powers exerciseable under this Act in relation to that transaction as a transaction at an undervalue.

^C548344 Avoidance of general assignment of book debts.¶

1 The following applies where a person engaged in any business makes a general assignment to another person of his existing or future book debts, or any class of them, and is subsequently made bankrupt.

2 The assignment is void against the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate as regards book debts which were not paid before the making of the bankruptcy application or (as the case may be) the presentation of the bankruptcy petition, unless the assignment has been registered under the ^M26Bills of Sale Act 1878.

3 For the purposes of subsections (1) and (2)—

a “assignment” includes an assignment by way of security or charge on book debts, and

b “general assignment” does not include—

i an assignment of book debts due at the date of the assignment from specified debtors or of debts becoming due under specified contracts, or

ii an assignment of book debts included either in a transfer of a business made in good faith and for value or in an assignment of assets for the benefit of creditors generally.

4 For the purposes of registration under the Act of 1878 an assignment of book debts is to be treated as if it were a bill of sale given otherwise than by way of security for the payment of a sum of money; and the provisions of that Act with respect to the registration of bills of sale apply accordingly with such necessary modifications as may be made by rules under that Act.

^C549^C550345 Contracts to which bankrupt is a party.¶

1 The following applies where a contract has been made with a person who is subsequently made bankrupt.

2 The court may, on the application of any other paty to the contract, make an order discharging obligations under the contract on such terms as to payment by the applicant or the bankrupt of damages for non-performance or otherwise as appear to the court to be equitable.

3 Any damages payable by the bankrupt by virtue of an order of the court under this section are provable as a bankruptcy debt.

4 Where an undischarged bankrupt is a contractor in respect of any contract jointly with any person, that person may sue or be sued in respect of the contract without the joinder of the bankrupt.

346 Enforcement procedures.¶

1 Subject to section 285 in Chapter II (restriction on proceedings and remedies) and to the following provisions of this section, where the creditor of any person who is made bankrupt has, before the commencement of the bankruptcy—

a issued execution against the goods or land of that person, or

b attached a debt due to that person from another person,

that creditor is not entitled, as against the official reciever or trustee of the bankrupt’s estate, to retain the benefit of the execution or attachment, or any sums paid to avoid it, unless the execution or attachment was completed, or the sums were paid, before the commencement of the bankruptcy.

1A For the purposes of this section, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs is to be regarded as having attached a debt due to a person if it has taken action under Part 1 of Schedule 8 to the Finance (No. 2) Act 2015 (enforcement by deduction from accounts) as a result of which an amount standing to the credit of an account held by that person is—

a subject to arrangements made under paragraph 6(3) of that Schedule, or

b the subject of a deduction notice under paragraph 13 of that Schedule.

2 Subject as follows, where any goods of a person have been taken in execution, then, if before the completion of the execution notice is given to the enforcement officer or other officer charged with the execution that that person has been made bankrupt—

a the enforcement officer or other officer shall on request deliver to the official receiver or trustee of the bankrupt’s estate the goods and any money seized or recovered in part satisfaction of the execution, but

b the costs of the execution are a first charge on the goods or money so delivered and the official receiver or trustee may sell the goods or a sufficient part of them for the purpose of satisfying the charge.

3 Subject to subsection (6) below, where—

a under an execution in respect of a judgment for a sum exceeding such sum as may be prescribed for the purposes of this subsection, the goods of any person are sold or money is paid in order to avoid a sale, and

b before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day of the sale or payment the enforcement officer or other officer charged with the execution is given notice that a bankruptcy application has been made or a bankruptcy petition has been presented in relation to that person, and

c a bankruptcy order is or has been made as a result of that application or on that petition,

the balance of the proceeds of sale or money paid, after deducting the costs of execution, shall (in priority to the claim of the execution creditor) be comprised in the bankrupt’s estate.

4 Accordingly, in the case of an execution in respect of a judgment for a sum exceeding the sum prescribed for the purposes of subsection (3), the enforcement officer or other officer charged with the execution—

a shall not dispose of the balance mentioned in subsection (3) at any time within the period of 14 days so mentioned or while proceedings on a bankruptcy application are ongoing or (as the case may be) there is pending a bankruptcy petition of which he has been given notice under that subsection, and

b shall pay that balance, where by virtue of that subsection it is comprised, in the bankrupt’s estate, to the official receiver or (if there is one) to the trustee or that estate.

5 For the purposes of this section—

a an execution against goods is completed by seizure and sale or by the making of a charging order under section 1 of the ^M27Charging Orders Act 1979;

b an execution against land is completed by seizure, by the appointment of a receiver or by the making of a charging order under that section;

c an attachment of a debt is completed by the receipt of the debt.

6 The rights conferred by subsections (1) to (3) on the official receiver or the trustee may, to such extent and on such terms as it thinks fit, be set aside by the court in favour of the creditor who has issued the execution or attached the debt.

7 Nothing in this section entitles the trustee of a bankrupt’s estate to claim goods from a person who has acquired them in good faith under a sale by an enforcement officer or other officer charged with an execution.

8 Neither subsection (2) nor subsection (3) applies in relation to any execution against property which has been acquired by or has devolved upon the bankrupt since the commencement of the bankruptcy, unless, at the time the execution is issued or before it is completed—

a the property has been or is claimed for the bankrupt’s estate under section 307 (after-acquired property), and

b a copy of the notice given under that section has been or is served on the enforcement officer or other officer charged with the execution.

9 In this section “enforcement officer” means an individual who is authorised to act as an enforcement officer under the Courts Act 2003.

347 Distress, etc.¶

1 CRAR (the power of commercial rent arrears recovery under section 72(1) of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007) is exercisable where the tenant is an undischarged bankrupt (subject to sections 252(2)(b) and 254(1) above and subsection (5) below) against goods and effects comprised in the bankrupt’s estate, but only for 6 months’ rent accrued due before the commencement of the bankruptcy.

2 Where CRAR has been exercised to recover rent from an individual to whom a bankruptcy application or a bankruptcy petition relates and a bankruptcy order is subsequently made as a result of that application or on that petition, any amount recovered by way of CRAR which—

a is in excess of the amount which by virtue of subsection (1) would have been recoverable after the commencement of the bankruptcy, or

b is in respect of rent for a period or part of a period after goods were taken control of under CRAR ,

shall be held for the bankrupt as apart of his estate.

a any person (whether or not a landlord or person entitled to rent) has distrained upon the goods or effects of an individual who is made bankrupt before the end of the period of 3 months beginning with the distraint, or

3A Where this subsection applies—

a in a case within subsection (3)(a), the goods or effects, or the proceeds of their sale, and

b in a case within subsection (3)(b), the amount in question,

is charged for the benefit of the bankrupt's estate with the preferential debts of the bankrupt to the extent that the bankrupt's estate is for the time being insufficient for meeting them.

4 Where by virtue of any charge under subsection (3A) any person surrenders any goods or effects to the trustee of a bankrupt’s estate or makes a payment to such a trustee, that person ranks, in respect of the amount of the proceeds of the sale of those goods or effects by the trustee or, as the case may be, the amount of the payment, as a preferential creditor of the bankrupt, except as against so much of the bankrupt’s estate as is available for the payment of preferential creditors by virtue of the surrender or payment.

5 CRAR is not exercisable at any time after the discharge of a bankrupt against any goods or effects comprised in the bankrupt’s estate.

8 Subject to sections 252(2)(b) and 254(1) above nothing in this Group of Parts affects any right to distrain otherwise than for rent; and any such right is at any time exerciseable without restriction against property comprised in a bankrupt’s estate, even if that right is expressed by any enactment to be exerciseable in like manner as a right to distrain for rent.

9 Any right to distrain against property comprised in a bankrupt’s estate is exerciseable notwithstanding that the propety has vested in the trustee.

10 The provisions of this section are without prejudice to a landlord’s right in a bankruptcy to prove for any bankruptcy debt in respect of rent.

2 Subject to subsection (6) below, the indenture of apprenticeship or, as the case may be, the articles of agreement shall be discharged with effect from the commencement of the bankruptcy.

a the amount of the fee,

b the proportion of the period in respect of which the fee was paid that has been served by the apprentice or clerk before the commencement of the bankruptcy, and

c the other circumstances of the case.

4 The power of the trustee to make a payment under subsection (3) has priority over his obligation to distribute the bankrupt’s estate.

5 Instead of making a payment under subsection (3), the trustee may, if it appears to him expedient to do so on an application made by or on behalf of the apprentice or clerk, transfer the indenture or articles to a person other than the bankrupt.

6 Where a transfer is made under subsection (5), subsection (2) has effect only as between the apprentice or clerk and the bankrupt.

^C551349 Unenforceability of liens on books, etc.¶

349A Arbitration agreements to which bankrupt is party.¶

a the trustee with the consent of the creditors’ committee, or

b any other party to the agreement,

may apply to the court which may, if it thinks fit in all the circumstances of the case, order that the matter be referred to arbitration in accordance with the arbitration agreement.

b the supply is for the purpose of a business which is or has been carried on by the individual, by a firm or partnership of which the individual is or was a member, or by an agent or manager for the individual or for such a firm or partnership.

2 An insolvency-related term of a contract does not cease to have effect by virtue of subsection (1) to the extent that—

a it provides for the contract or the supply to terminate, or any other thing to take place, because the individual becomes subject to an insolvency procedure other than a voluntary arrangement;

b it entitles a supplier to terminate the contract or the supply, or do any other thing, because the individual becomes subject to an insolvency procedure other than a voluntary arrangement; or

c it entitles a supplier to terminate the contract or the supply because of an event that occurs, or may occur, after the voluntary arrangement proposed by the individual is approved.

3 Where an insolvency-related term of a contract ceases to have effect under this section the supplier may—

The court may grant permission under paragraph (b) only if satisfied that the continuation of the contract would cause the supplier hardship.

6 For the purposes of securing that the interests of suppliers are protected, where—

a an insolvency-related term of a contract (the “original term”) ceases to have effect by virtue of subsection (1), and

b a subsequent voluntary arrangement proposed by the individual is approved,

the contract is treated for the purposes of subsections (1) to (5) as if, immediately before the subsequent voluntary arrangement proposed by the individual is approved, it included an insolvency-related term identical to the original term.

7 A contract for the supply of essential goods or services is a contract for a supply mentioned in section 372(4).

8 An insolvency-related term of a contract for the supply of essential goods or services to an individual is a provision of the contract under which—

a the contract or the supply would terminate, or any other thing would take place, because the voluntary arrangement proposed by the individual is approved,

1 A recognised professional body on which a penalty is imposed may appeal to the court on one or more of the appeal grounds.

2 The appeal grounds are—

a that the imposition of the penalty was not within the Secretary of State's power under section 391F;

b that the requirement in respect of which the penalty was imposed had been complied with before the notice under section 391G(1) was given;

c that the requirements of section 391G have not been complied with in relation to the imposition of the penalty and the interests of the body have been substantially prejudiced as a result;

d that the amount of the penalty is unreasonable;

e that it was unreasonable of the Secretary of State to require the penalty imposed to be paid by the time specified in the notice under section 391G(5)(c).

3 An appeal under this section must be made within the period of three months beginning with the day on which the notice under section 391G(4) in respect of the penalty is given to the body.

4 On an appeal under this section the court may—

a quash the penalty,

b substitute a penalty of such lesser amount as the court considers appropriate, or

c in the case of the appeal ground in subsection (2)(e), substitute for the time imposed by the Secretary of State a different time.

5 Where the court substitutes a penalty of a lesser amount, it may require the payment of interest on the substituted penalty from such time, and at such rate, as it considers just and equitable.

6 Where the court substitutes a later time for the time specified in the notice under section 391G(5)(c), it may require the payment of interest on the penalty from the substituted time at such rate as it considers just and equitable.

7 Where the court dismisses the appeal, it may require the payment of interest on the penalty from the time specified in the notice under section 391G(5)(c) at such rate as it considers just and equitable.

8 In this section, “the court” means the High Court or, in Scotland, the Court of Session.

1 If the whole or part of a penalty is not paid by the time by which it is required to be paid, the unpaid balance from time to time carries interest at the rate for the time being specified in section 17 of the Judgments Act 1838 (but this is subject to any requirement imposed by the court under section 391H(5), (6) or (7)).

2 If an appeal is made under section 391H in relation to a penalty, the penalty is not required to be paid until the appeal has been determined or withdrawn.

3 Subsection (4) applies where the whole or part of a penalty has not been paid by the time it is required to be paid and—

a no appeal relating to the penalty has been made under section 391H during the period within which an appeal may be made under that section, or

b an appeal has been made under that section and determined or withdrawn.

4 The Secretary of State may recover from the recognised professional body in question, as a debt due to the Secretary of State, any of the penalty and any interest which has not been paid.

3 In determining whether to make an order under this section, and the terms of such an order, the court must have regard to all the circumstances of the case, including the interests of the deceased’s creditors and of the survivor; but, unless the circumstances are exceptional, the court must assume that the interests of the deceased’s creditors outweigh all other considerations.

2 An order under section 423 may affect the property of, or impose any obligation on, any person whether or not he is the person with whom the debtor entered into the transaction; but such an order—

a shall not prejudice any interest in property which was acquired from a person other than the debtor and was acquired in good faith, for value and without notice of the relevant circumstances, or prejudice any interest deriving from such an interest, and

7 Section 38 of the ^M39Criminal Law Act 1977 (execution of warrant of arrest throughout the United Kingdom) applies to a warrant which, in exercise of any jurisdiction in relation to insolvency law, is issued in any part of the United Kingdom for the arrest of a person as it applies to a warrant issued in that part of the United Kingdom for the arrest of a person charged with an offence.

8 Without prejudice to any power to make rules of court, any power to make provision by subordinate legislation for the purpose of giving effect in relation to companies or individuals to the insolvency law of any part of the United Kingdom includes power to make provision for the purpose of giving effect in that part to any provision made by or under the preceding provisions of this section.

SCHEDULE 11 ¶

Transitional Provisions and Savings

Section 437.

Part I Company Insolvency and Winding Up¶

Administration orders¶

1 Where any right to appoint an administrative receiver of a company is conferred by any debentures or floating charge created before the appointed day, the conditions precedent to the exercise of that right are deemed to include the presentation of a petition applying for an administration order to be made in relation to the company.

2 “Administrative receiver” here has the meaning assigned by section 251.

Receivers and managers (England and Wales)¶

1 In relation to any receiver or manager of a company’s property who was appointed before the appointed day, the new law does not apply; and the relevant provisions of the former law continue to have effect.

2 “The new law” here means Chapter I of Part III, and Part VI, of this Act; and “the former law” means the Companies Act 1985 and so much of this Act as replaces provisions of that Act (without the amendments in paragraphs 15 to 17 of Schedule 6 to the ^M64Insolvency Act 1985, or the associated repeals by that Act), and any provision of the Insolvency Act 1985 which was in force before the appointed day.

3 This paragraph is without prejudice to the power conferred by this Act under which rules under section 411 may make transitional provision in connection with the coming into force of those rules; and such provision may apply those rules in relation to the receiver or manager of a company’s property notwithstanding that he was appointed before the coming into force of the rules or section 411.

Receivers (Scotland)¶

1 In relation to any receiver appointed under section 467 of the Com panies Act before the appointed day, the new law does not apply and the relevant provisions of the former law continue to have effect.

2 “The new law” here means Chapter II of Part III, and Part VI, of this Act; and “the former law” means the Companies Act 1985 and so much of this Act as replaces provisions of that Act (without the amendments in paragraphs 18 to 22 of Schedule 6 to the Insolvency Act 1985 or the associated repeals made by the Act), and any provision of the Insolvency Act 1985 which was in force before the appointed day.

3 This paragraph is without prejudice to the power conferred by this Act under which rules under section 411 may make transitional provision in connection with the coming into force of those rules; and such provision may apply those rules in relation to a receiver appointed under section 467 notwithstanding that he was appointed before the coming into force of the rules or section 411.

Winding up already in progress¶

1 In relation to any winding up which has commenced, or is treated as having commenced, before the appointed day, the new law does not apply, and the former law continues to have effect, subject to the following paragraphs.

2 “The new law” here means any provisions in the first Group of Parts of this Act which replace sections 66 to 87 and 89 to 105 of the ^M65Insolvency Act 1985; and “the former law” means Parts XX and XXI of the the Companies Act 1985(without the amendments in paragraphs 23 to 52 of Schedule 6 to the Insolvency Act 1985, or the associated repeals made by the Act).

Statement of affairs¶

1 Where a winding up by the court in England and Wales has commenced, or is treated as having commenced, before the appointed day, the official receiver or (on appeal from a refusal by him) the court may, at any time on or after that day—

a release a person from an obligation imposed on him by or under section 528 of the Companies Act 1985 (statement of affairs), or

b extend the period specified in subsection (6) of that section.

2 Accordingly, on and after the appointed day, section 528(6) has effect in relation to a winding up to which this paragraph applies with the omission of the words from “or within” onwards.

Provisions relating to liquidator¶

1 This paragraph applies as regards the liquidator in the case of winding up by the court in England and Wales commenced, or treated as having commenced, before the appointed day.

2 The official receiver may, at any time when he is liquidator of the company, apply to the Secretary of State for the appointment of a liquidator in his (the official receiver’s) place; and on any such application the Secretary of State shall either make an appointment or decline to make one.

3 Where immediately before the appointed day the liquidator of the company has not made an application under section 545 of the Companies Act 1985 (release of liquidators), then—

a except where the Secretary of State otherwise directs, sections 146(1) and (2) and 172(8) of this Act apply, and section 545 does not apply, in relation to any liquidator of that company who holds office on or at any time after the appointed day and is not the official receiver;

b section 146(3) applies in relation to the carrying out at any time after that day by any liquidator of the company of any of his functions; and

c a liquidator in relation to whom section 172(8) has effect by virtue of this paragraph has his release with effect from the time specified in section 174(4)(d) of this Act.

4 Subsection (6) of section 174 of this Act has effect for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(c) above as it has for the purposes of that section, but as if the reference to section 212 were to section 631 of the Companies Act 1985.

5 The liquidator may employ a solicitor to assist him in the carrying out of his functions without the permission of the committee of inspection; but if he does so employ a solicitor he shall inform the committee of inspection that he has done so.

Winding up under supervision of the court¶

7The repeals in Part II of Schedule 10 the ^M66Insolvency Act 1985 of references (in the Companies Act 1985 and elsewhere) to a winding up under the supervision of the court do not affect the operation of the enactments in which the references are contained in relation to any case in which an order under section 606 of the Companies Act 1985 (power to order winding up under supervision) was made before the appointed day.

Saving for power to make rules¶

1 Paragraphs 4 to 7 are without prejudice to the power conferred by this Act under which rules made under section 411 may make transitional provision in connection with the coming into force of those rules.

2 Such provision may apply those rules in relation to a winding up notwithstanding that the winding up commenced, or is treated as having commenced, before the coming into force of the rules or section 411.

Setting aside of preferences and other transactions¶

1 Where a provision in Part VI of this Act applies in relation to a winding up or in relation to a case in which an administration order has been made, a preference given, floating charge created or other transaction entered into before the appointed day shall not be set aside under the provision except to the extent that it could have been set aside under the law in force immediately before that day, assuming for this purpose that any relevant administration order had been winding-up order.

2 The references above to setting aside a preference, floating charge or other transaction include the making of an order which varies or reverses any effect of a preference, floating charge or other transaction.

Part II Individual Insolvency¶

Bankruptcy (general)¶

1 Subject to the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule, so much of this Act as replaces Part III of the ^M67Insolvency Act 1985 does not apply in relation to any case in which a petition in bankruptcy was presented, or a receiving order or adjudication in bankruptcy was made, before the appointed day.

2 In relation to any such case as is mentioned above, the enactments specified in Schedule 8 to that Act, so far as they relate to bankruptcy, and those specified in Parts III and IV of Schedule 10 to that Act, so far as they so relate, have effect without the amendments and repeals specified in those Schedules.

3 Where any subordinate legislation made under an enactment referred to in sub-paragraph (2) is in force immediately before the appointed day, that subordinate legislation continues to have effect on and after that day in relation to any such case as is mentioned in sub-paragraph (1).

1 In relation to any such case as is mentioned in paragraph 10(1) the references in any enactment or subordinate legislation to a petition, order or other matter which is provided for under the ^M68Bankruptcy Act 1914 and corresponds to a petition, order or other matter provided for under provisions of this Act replacing Part III of the Insolvency Act 1985 continue on and after the appointed day to have effect as references to the petition, order or matter provided for by the Act of 1914; but otherwise those references have effect on and after that day as references to the petition, order or matter provided for by those provisions of this Act.

2 Without prejudice to sub-paragraph (1), in determining for the purposes of section 279 of this Act (period of bankruptcy) or paragraph 13 below whether any person was an undischarged bankrupt at a time before the appointed day, an adjudication in bankruptcy and an annulment of a bankruptcy under the Act of 1914 are to be taken into account in the same way, respectively, as a bankruptcy order under the provisions of this Act replacing Part III of the Insolvency Act 1985 and the annulment under section 282 of this Act of such an order.

12Transactions entered into before the appointed day have effect on and after that day as if references to acts of bankruptcy in the provisions for giving effect to those transactions continued to be references to acts of bankruptcy within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Act 1914, but as if such acts included failure to comply with a statutory demand served under section 268 of this Act.

Discharge from old bankruptcy¶

1 Where a person—

a was adjudged bankrupt before the appointed day or is adjudged bankrupt on or after that day on a petition presented before that day, and

b that person was not an undischarged bankrupt at any time in the period of 15 years ending with the adjudication,

that person is deemed (if not previously discharged) to be discharged from his bankruptcy for the purposes of the ^M69Bankruptcy Act 1914 at the end of the discharge period.

2 Subject to sub-paragraph (3) below, the discharge period for the purposes of this paragraph is—

a in the case of a person adjudged bankrupt before the appointed day, the period of 3 years beginning with that day, and

b in the case of a person who is adjudged bankrupt on or after that day on a petition presented before that day, the period of 3 years beginning with the date of the adjudication.

3 Where the court exercising jurisdiction in relation to a bankruptcy to which this paragraph applies is satisfied, on the application of the official receiver, that the bankrupt has failed, or is failing, to comply with any of his obligations under the Bankruptcy Act 1914, any rules made under that Act or any such rules as are mentioned in paragraph 19(1) below, the court may order that the discharge period shall cease to run for such period, or until the fulfilment of such conditions (including a condition requiring the court to be satisfied as to any matter) as may be specified in the order.

Provisions relating to trustee¶

1 This paragraph applies as regards the trustee in the case of a person adjudged bankrupt before the appointed day, or adjudged bankrupt on or after that day on a petition presented before that day.

2 The official receiver may at any time when he is the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate apply to the Secretary of State for the appointment of a person as trustee instead of the official receiver; and on any such application the Secretary of State shall either make an appointment or decline to make one.

3 Where on the appointed day the trustee of a bankrupt’s estate has not made an application under section 93 of the Bankruptcy Act 1914 (release of trustee), then—

a except where the Secretary of State otherwise directs, sections 298(8), 304 and 331(1) to (3) of this Act apply, and section 93 of the Act of 1914 does not apply, in relation to any trustee of the bankrupt’s estate who holds office on or at any time after the appointed day and is not the official receiver;

b section 331(4) of this Act applies in relation to the carrying out at any time on or after the appointed day by the trustee of the bankrupt’s estate of any of his functions; and

c a trustee in relation to whom section 298(8) of this Act has effect by virtue of this paragraph has his release with effect from the time specified in section 299(3)(d).

4 Subsection (5) of this section 299 has effect for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(c) as it has for the purposes of that section 8.

5 In the application of subsection (3) of section 331 in relation to a case by virtue of this paragraph, the reference in that subsection to section 330(1) has effect as a reference to section 67 of the ^M70Bankruptcy Act 1914.

6 The trustee of the bankrupt’s estate may employ a solicitor to assist him in the carrying out of his functions without the permission of the committee of inspection; but if he does so employ a solicitor, he shall inform the committee of inspection that he has done so.

Copyright¶

1 Where a person who is adjudged bankrupt on a petition presented on or after the appointed day is liable, by virtue of a transaction entered into before that day, to pay royalties or a share of the profits to any person in respect of any copyright or interest in copyright comprised in the bankrupt’s estate, section 60 of the Bankruptcy Act 1914 (limitation on trustee’s powers in relation to copyright) applies in relation to the trustee of that estate as it applies in relation to a trustee in bankruptcy under the Act of 1914.

Second bankruptcy¶

1 Sections 334 and 335 of this Act apply with the following modifications where the earlier bankruptcy (within the meaning of section 334) is a bankruptcy in relation to which the Act of 1914 applies instead of the second Group of Parts in this Act, that is to say—

a references to property vested in the existing trustee under section 307(3) of this Act have effect as references to such property vested in that trustee as was acquired by or devolved on the bankrupt after the commencement (within the meaning of the Act of 1914) of the earlier bankruptcy; and

b references to an order under section 310 of this Act have effect as references to an order under section 51 of the Act of 1914.

2 Section 39 of the Act of 1914 (second bankruptcy) does not apply where a person is an undischarged bankrupt under that Act is adjudged bankrupt under this Act.

Setting aside of preferences and other transactions¶

1 A performance given, assignment made or other transaction entered into before the appointed day shall not be set aside under any of sections 339 to 344 of this Act except to the extent that it could have been set aside under the law in force immediately before that day.

2 References in sub-paragraph (1) to setting aside a preference, assignment or other transaction include the making of any order which varies or reverses any effect of a preference, assignment or other transaction.

Bankruptcy offences¶

1 Where a bankruptcy order is made under this Act on or after the appointed day, a person is not guilty of an offence under Chapter VI of Part IX in respect of anything done before that day; but, notwithstanding the repeal by the ^M71Insolvency Act 1985 of the ^M72Bankruptcy Act 1914, is guilty of an offence under the Act of 1914 in respect of anything done before the appointed day which would have been an offence under that Act if the making of the bankruptcy order had been the making of a receiving order under that Act.

2 Subsection (5) of section 350 of this Act applies (instead of sections 157(2), 158(2), 161 and 165 of the Act of 1914) in relation to proceedings for an offence under that Act which are instituted (whether by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) or otherwise) after the appointed day.

Power to make rules¶

1 The preceding provisions of this Part of this Schedule are without prejudice to the power conferred by this Act under which rules under section 412 may make transitional provision in connection with the coming into force of those rules; and such provision may apply those rules in relation to a bankrutpcy notwithstanding that it arose from a petition presented before either the coming into forc He of the rules or the appointed day.

2 Rules under section 412 may provide for such notices served before the appointed day as may be prescribed to be treated for the purposes of this Act as statutory demands served under section 268.

Part III Transitional Effect of Part XVI¶

1 A transaction entered into before the appointed day shall not be set aside under Part XVI of this Act except to the extent that it could have been set aside under the law in force immediately before that day.

2 References above to setting aside a transaction include the making of any order which varies or reverses any effect of a transaction.

Part IV Insolvency Practitioners¶

21Where an individual began to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to any person before the appointed day, nothing in section 390(2) or (3) prevents that individual from being qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to that person.

Part V General Transitional Provisions and Savings¶

Interpretation for this Part¶

22In this Part of this Schedule, “the former enactments” means so much of the Companies Act 1985 as is repealed and replaced by this Act, the ^M73Insolvency Act 1985 and the other enactments repealed by this Act.

General saving for past acts and events¶

23So far as anything done or treated as done under or for the purposes of any provision of the former enactments could have been done under or for the purposes of the corresponding provision of this Act, it is not invalidated by the repeal of that provision but has effect as if done under or for the purposes of the corresponding provision; and any order, regulation, rule or other instrument made or having effect under any provision of the former enactments shall, insofar as its effect is preserved by this paragraph, be treated for all purposes as made and having effect under the corresponding provision.

Periods of time¶

24Where any period of time specified in a provision of the former enactments is current immediately before the appointed day, this Act has effect as if the corresponding provision had been in force when the period began to run; and (without prejudice to the foregoing) any period of time so specified and current is deemed for the purposes of this Act—

a to run from the date or event from which it was running immediately before the appointed day, and

b to expire (subject to any provision of this Act for its extension) whenever it would have expired if this Act had not been passed;

and any rights, priorities, liabilities, reliefs, obligations, requirements, powers, duties or exemptions dependent on the beginning, duration or end of such period as above mentioned shall be under this Act as they were or would have been under the former enactments.

Internal cross-references in this Act¶

25Where in any provision of this Act there is a reference to another such provision, and the first-mentioned provision operates, or is capable of operating, in relation to things done or omitted, or events occurring or not occurring, in the past (including in particular past act of compliance with any enactment, failures of compliance, contraventions, offences and convictions of offences), the reference to the other provision is to be read as including a reference to the corresponding provision of the former enactments.

Punishment of offences¶

1 Offences committed before the appointed day under any provision of the former enactments may, notwithstanding any repeal by this Act, be prosecuted and punished after that day as if this Act had not passed.

2 A contravention of any provision of the former enactments committed before the appointed day shall not be visited with any severer punishment under or by virtue of this Act than would have been applicable under that provision at the time of the contravention; but where an offence for the continuance of which a penalty was provided has been comitted under any provision of the former enactments, proceedings may be taken under this Act in respect of the continuance of the offence on and after the appointed day in the like manner as if the offence had been committed under the corresponding provision of this Act.

References elsewhere to the former enactments¶

1 A reference in any enactment, instrument or document (whether express or implied, and in whatever phraseology) to a provision of the former enactments (including the corresponding provision of any yet earlier enactment) is to be read, where necessary to retain for the enactment, instrument or document the same force and effect as it would have had but for the passing of this Act, as, or as including, a reference to the corresponding provision by which it is replaced in this Act.

2 The generality of the preceding sub-paragraph is not affected by any specific conversion of references made by this Act, nor by the inclusion in any provision of this Act of a reference (whether express or implied, and in whatever phraseology) to the provision of the former enactments corresponding to that provision, or to a provision of the former enactments which is replaced by a corresponding provision of this Act.

Saving for power to repeal provisions in section 51¶

28The Secretary of State may by order in a statutory instrument repeal subsections (3) to (5) of section 51 of this Act and the entries in Schedule 10 relating to subsections (4) and (5) of that section.

Saving for Interpretation Act 1978 ss. 16, 17¶

29Nothing in this Schedule is to be taken as prejudicing sections 16 and 17 of the ^M74Interpretation Act 1978 (savings from, and effect of, repeals); and for the purposes of section 17(2) of that Act (construction of references to enactments repealed and replaced, etc.), so much of section 18 of the ^M75Insolvency Act 1985 as is replaced by a provision of this Act is deemed to have been repealed by this Act and not by the ^M76Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
