Notice to the Creditors of an Insolvent Company of the Re-Use of a Prohibited name - Rule 22.4 of
the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016
On 7 June 2019 the above-named company went into insolvent liquidation. I, Alistair Ferrie of
Unit 3 & 4 Riverside Court Colne Road Huddersfield West Yorkshire HD1 3ER was a director of
the above-named company during the twelve months ending with the day before it went into
liquidation.
I give notice that it is my intention to act in one or more of the ways specified in section
216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 in connection with, or for the purposes of, the carrying on
of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the insolvent company under the
following name: Electrical Wholesale (Huddersfield).
Rule 22.5 - Statement as to the effect of the notice under rule 22.4(2):
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 twelve 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.
This notice is given in pursuance of 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 the giving of 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".
