HMRC breaches disability rules over bankruptcy

[Latch Key Kid]

Hi

This looks interesting

http://www.insolvencynews.com/articl...ver-bankruptcy

These two para's in particular....

This was the first time a court had considered a public authority’s duties under the DDA in the area of insolvency.

In wider implications for the profession, the court left open the question of whether a trustee in bankruptcy is also a public authority, who owes duties to the bankrupt under the DDA, and whether his or her costs and expenses could be reduced if such duties are breached.

LKK,

Thanks for that interesting indeed,would be handy to get hold of the Judgement on this.

Far too many Companies are breaching this act whether they be Government Dept or Private Entities.

Nice to see the DDA being used and backed up by the Judge a just result all round
