Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

This order makes consequential amendments to or in connection with disqualification provisions to take account of debt relief order and debt relief restrictions orders. The amendments made by this order are to primary and subordinate legislation which already provides for disqualification of persons from in the event of insolvency, so as to extend these disqualifications to persons subject to debt relief orders (under Part 7A of the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989) and to debt relief restrictions orders (under Schedule 2ZA to the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989). A regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this Order as it has no impact on the costs on business.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
