LNB news: Coronavirus (COVID-19)—temporary Insolvency Practice Direction extended

The Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Ministry of Justice, Lord Wolfson, has approved and signed a temporary Insolvency Practice Direction (TIPD) on behalf of the Lord Chancellor.

Lexis®Library update: The TIPD replaces and extends the previous TIPD and comes into force on 1 April 2021. There is no change to the procedures that are currently being followed for insolvency hearings or for the provisions in relation to administration appointments and statutory declarations. The measures in the TIPD are designed to assist court users during the continuing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
