Limited disclosure

55.—(1) Where the administrator thinks that it would prejudice the conduct of the administration (or might reasonably be expected to lead to violence against any person) for the whole or part of the statement of the investment bank’s affairs to be disclosed, the administrator may apply to the court for an order of limited disclosure in respect of the statement.

(2) The court may, on such application, order that the statement or, as the case may be, the specified part of it, shall not be filed with the registrar of companies.

(3) The administrator shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, send a copy of the order and the statement of affairs (to the extent provided by the order) and any statement of concurrence to the registrar of companies.

(7) The applicant shall give the administrator notice of the application at least 3 business days before the hearing.

(8) The court may make any order for disclosure subject to any conditions as to confidentiality, duration, the scope of the order in the event of any change of circumstances, or other matters as it sees just.

(9) If there is a material change in circumstances rendering the limit on disclosure or any part of it unnecessary, the administrator shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the change, apply to the court for the order or any part of it to be rescinded.

(10) The administrator shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the making of an order under paragraph (9), file a copy of the statement of affairs to the extent provided by the order with the registrar of companies.

(11) When the statement of affairs is filed in accordance with paragraph (10), the administrator shall, where they have sent a statement of proposals under paragraph 49, or, in a special administration (bank administration), paragraph 9 of Schedule 2 to the Regulations, provide the creditors and clients with a copy of the statement of affairs as filed, or a summary thereof.

(12) The provisions of CPR Part 31 shall not apply to an application under this rule.

Release from duty to submit statement of affairs

56.—(1) The power of the administrator under paragraph 48(2) to give a release from the obligation imposed by paragraph 47(1) or to grant an extension of time may be exercised at the administrator’s own discretion, or at the request of any relevant person.

(2) A relevant person may, if they request a release of extension of time and it is refused by the administrator, apply to the court for it and when such an application is made, the period referred to in paragraph 48(1) is suspended pending the court’s decision.

(3) The court may, if it thinks that no sufficient cause is shown for the application, dismiss it without a hearing but it shall not do so without giving the relevant person at least 5 business days’ notice, upon receipt of which the relevant person may request the court to list the application for a without notice hearing.

(4) If the application is not dismissed under paragraph (3), the court shall fix a venue for it to be heard, and give notice to the relevant person and to the FSA accordingly.

(5) Where an application has been made under paragraph (2), the FSA may appear and be heard at the hearing and in a special administration (bank administration), the Bank of England may also be given notice of the hearing and may appear and be heard at the hearing or may make written representations.

(6) The relevant person shall, at least 14 days before the hearing, send to the administrator a notice stating the venue and accompanied by a copy of the application and of any evidence which the relevant person intends to adduce in support of it.

(7) The administrator may appear and be heard on the application and, whether or not they appear, the administrator may file a written report of any matters which they consider ought to be drawn to the court’s attention.

(8) If a report is filed under paragraph (7), a copy of it shall be sent by the administrator to the relevant person not later than 5 business days before the hearing.

(9) Sealed copies of any order made on the application shall be sent by the court to the relevant person and the administrator.

(10) On any application under this rule, the relevant person’s costs shall be paid in any event by that person and, unless the court otherwise orders, no allowance towards them shall be made as an expense of the special administration.

Expenses of statement of affairs

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
