NOTICE TO THE CREDITORS OF AN INSOLVENT COMPANY OF THE RE-USE OF A PROHIBITED NAME

PURSUANT TO RULE 22.4 OF THE INSOLVENCY RULES 2016

CRASH CUSHION RENTAL SOLUTIONS LIMITED

(In Administration)

08847752

On 31 January 2019, the above named company entered administration.

I, Anthony Robert Pope of 12a Westpoint Enterprise Park, Clarence Avenue, Trafford Park, Manchester, England, M17 1QS

was the sole Director of the above named company on the date it entered administration.

I give notice that it is my intention to act in one or more of the ways to which Section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 would apply if the above named company were to go into insolvent liquidation in connection with, or for the purposes of, the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the above named company under the name “Smart Traffic Management Solutions Ltd trading as Crash Cushion Rental Solutions or CCRS”.

Section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 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 Insolvency Rules made under the Insolvency Act 1986. (This includes the exceptions in Part 22 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 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.

Breach of the prohibition created by section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 is a criminal offence.

This notice is given under rule 22.4 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 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 that company.

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

Notice may be given where the person giving the notice is already the director of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
