Article 110 of the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 (No. 2405 (N.I. 19)) is the equivalent provision to section 130 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (c. 45) (consequences of winding up order) and is therefore applied by sections 103 (general powers, duties and effect) and 134 (Northern Ireland) of the Banking Act 2009.
