Part 1 of these Rules amends provisions in the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016 (“the 2016 Rules”), which came into force on 6 April 2017. The purpose of these amendments is to effect minor corrections and clarifications. Rule 7 has a more substantive effect in that it inserts a new provision reflecting the Practice Direction supplementing Section IV of CPR Part 6, for service of a statutory demand outside of the jurisdiction. Rule 8 enables the court to decline to a file a bankruptcy petition if the creditor has not satisfied the requirement to bring the debtor’s attention to the statutory demand.
