Rule 22.5 - Statement as to the effect of the notice under rule 22.4(2):

6. Section 216(3) of the Act lists the activities that a director of a company that has gone into insolvent liquidation may not undertake unless the Court gives permission or there is an exception in the IR 2016 under the Act (this includes the exceptions in rule 22 of the IR 2016).

These activities are:

a) acting as a director of another company that is known by a name which is either the same as a name used by the company in insolvent liquidation in the 12 months before it entered liquidation or is so similar as to suggest an association with that company;

b) directly or indirectly being concerned or taking part in the promotion, formation or management of any such company; or

c) directly or indirectly being concerned in the carrying on of a business otherwise than through a company under a name of the kind mentioned in (a) above.

7. This notice is given under rule 22.4 of the IR 2016 where the business of a company which is in, or may go into, insolvent liquidation is, or is to be, carried on otherwise than by the company in liquidation with the involvement of a director of that company and under the same or a similar name to that of the company.

8. The purpose of giving this notice is to permit the directors to act in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the directors committing a criminal offence and in case of the carrying on of the business through another company, being personally liable for that company’s debts.

9. Notice may be given where the persons giving the notice are already directors of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
