(This includes the exceptions in Part 22 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016). These activities are,

(a) acting as a director of another company that is known by a name which is either the same as a name used by the company in insolvent liquidation in the period of 12 months ending on the day before it entered liquidation or is so similar as to suggest an association with that company,

(b) directly or indirectly being concerned or taking part in the promotion, formation or management of any such company, or

(c) directly or indirectly being concerned in the carrying on of a business otherwise than through a company under a name of the kind mentioned in (a) above.

This notice is given in pursuance of Rule 22.4 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016). where the business of a company which is in, or may go into, insolvent liquidation is, or is to be, carried on otherwise than by the company in liquidation with the involvement of a director of that company and under the same or a similar name to that of that company.

The purpose of the giving of this notice is to permit the directors to act in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the directors committing a criminal offence and in the case of the carrying on of the business through another company, being personally liable for that company’s debts.

Notice using this form may be given where the director giving the notice is /are already the director of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
