Administrator’s proposals in the event of FSA direction

This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

17.—(1) Where the FSA has given a direction under regulation 16, the administrator shall make a statement setting out proposals for achieving the special administration objectives in accordance with the FSA’s direction.

(2) The statement under paragraph (1) must deal with such matters as may be prescribed and may include—

(a)a proposal for a voluntary arrangement under Part 1 of the Insolvency Act (although this regulation is without prejudice to section 4(3) of that Act); or

(b)a proposal for a compromise or arrangement to be sanctioned under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 (arrangements and reconstructions).

(3) The statement shall be agreed with the FSA.

(4) If the administrator is unable to agree the statement with the FSA, the administrator may apply to the court for directions under paragraph 63 of Schedule B1 (as applied by regulation 15).

(5) Following an application under sub-paragraph (4), the court may—

(a)make an order dispensing with the need for agreement;

(b)adjourn the hearing conditionally or unconditionally; or

(c)make any other order that the court thinks appropriate.

(6) The court may make an order under sub-paragraph (5)(a) only if it considers that the proposals set out in the statement are reasonably likely to ensure that the administrator acts in accordance with the FSA’s direction.

(7) Where the court makes an order, the administrator shall as soon as possible send a copy of the order to the registrar of companies.

(8) After—

(a)the statement has been agreed with the FSA; or

(b)the court has made an order dispensing with the need for agreement,

paragraph 49(4) to (8) of Schedule B1 (as applied by regulation 15) shall then apply to the statement, but the administrator need not send the FSA a copy of the statement of proposals.

(9) Where, before the FSA gives its direction under regulation 16, a meeting of creditors has approved the statement of proposals in accordance with paragraph 53 of Schedule B1 (as applied by regulation 15), that statement of proposals shall be ignored for the purposes of regulation 16, this regulation and paragraph 68 of Schedule B1 (as applied by regulation 15).

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.
