The Investment Bank Special Administration Regulations 2011

Revision to the statement of proposals (Objective A not yet achieved)

This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

11.—(1) This paragraph applies where—

(a)the administrator’s statement has been—

(i)agreed with the Bank of England (or the court has made an order dispensing with the need for this agreement under paragraph 8(2)), and

(ii)approved by the meeting of creditors (or if the court has made an order dispensing with the need for this approval under paragraph 14);

(b)the administrator proposes a revision to the statement;

(c)the administrator thinks the revision is substantial; and

(d)the Bank of England has not given the Objective A Achievement Notice.

(2) The administrator shall agree the revised statement with the Bank of England and, where the FSA has given a direction and it has not been withdrawn, with the FSA.

(3) Paragraph 8(2) to (6) shall apply where the administrator is unable to agree a statement with the Bank of England or (as the case may be) with the FSA.

(4) Once the revision has been approved by the Bank of England (and, as the case may be, with the FSA) or, if the court has made an order dispensing with the need for those approvals, paragraph 54(2) to (5)(a) of Schedule B1 applies in respect of the revised statement save that—

(a)if the administrator thinks that the proposed revision affects both creditors and clients, then every reference in paragraph 54 to creditors includes clients;

(b)if the administrator thinks that the proposed revision only affects either creditors or clients, then paragraph 54 only applies in respect of the affected party,

and where sub-paragraph (b) applies, the party not affected must be informed of the proposed revision in a manner prescribed.

(5) In sub-paragraph (2) of paragraph 54, where the FSA has not given a direction under regulation 16, the FSA shall be sent a copy of the statement of the proposed revision and invited to appoint a representative to attend the creditors’ meeting.

(6) The FSCS shall be sent a copy of the statement of the proposed revision.

(7) If the meeting of creditors is unable to approve the statement, the administrator may apply to court for an order dispensing with the need for the approval of the meeting of creditors, and paragraph 14 applies.

(8) Where the administrator makes an application under sub-paragraph (7), sub-paragraphs (6) and (7) of paragraph 54 shall apply.
