UK: First Review of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016 - call for evidence

The Insolvency Service has published a call for evidence in respect of its first review of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016: see here. These Rules, to quote from the opening paragraph of the call for evidence, "... set out the detailed procedure for the conduct of company and individual insolvency proceedings under the Insolvency Act 1986, providing the framework giving effect to the regime specified in the Act. They represent the single most significant piece of legislation in respect of the insolvency regime operating in England and Wales, after the Insolvency Act itself; and the largest, with over nine hundred rules in the main body and numerous additional schedules covering specific topics".
