NOTICE TO THE CREDITORS OF AN INSOLVENT COMPANY REGARDING THE RE-USE OF A PROHIBITED NAME - RULE 22.4 OF THE INSOLVENCY (ENGLAND AND WALES) RULES 2016
On 2 July 2026 the above-named company went into insolvent liquidation.
I, Matthew William Anthony Trinder of C/O Farleys Solicitors LLP, 3 Mead Way, Shuttleworth Business
Park, Padiham, Burnley, BB12 7NG , was a director of the above-named company during the 12 months
ending with the day before it went into liquidation.
I give notice that it is my intention to act in all or any of the ways specified
in section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 in connection with, or for the
purposes of, the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the
business of the insolvent company under the following name:
SOVEREIGN BUSINESS BROKERS LIMITED
Rule 22.5 - Statement as to the effect of the notice under rule 22.4(2):
"Section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 lists the activities that a director of a company that has gone into insolvent
liquidation may not undertake unless the court gives permission or there is an exception in the Insolvency Rules made
under the Insolvency Act 1986. (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 12 months 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 under 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 director to act in these circumstances where the company
enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the director 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 may be given where the person giving the notice is already the director of a company which proposes to adopt a
prohibited name".
