Insolvency EC regulations or Insolvency Act 1986 & Rules ?

The request was refused by Cabinet Office.

Dear Cabinet Office

The insolvency Service has refused to give a straight answer to the following question.

UK Insolvency/ Bankruptcy EC Regulation Article 3 - Article 3(1) (2) (3) (4) Main, Secondary, Territorial Proceedings

Please clarify which part of the EC regulations above applies to the main, secondary and territorial proceedings insolvency forms used within the UK.

UK insolvency forms and orders are only stating Article 3 but not which part of Article 3 applies (1) (2) (3) or (4).

Insolvency EC regulations or Insolvency Act 1986 & Rules ?

Please can you confirm if Insolvency proceeding are beging carried out under EC regulations and not Insolvency Act 1986 and Insolvency Rules.

And if TWO bankruptcy filings are being carried out simultaneously that the debtor is not being made aware of?

Please define the definition of main proceedings and how this applies to the people living in the UK, and also the same process for secondary, and territorial proceedings.

Yours faithfully,

J. Ross
