Sussex Ram Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) 9 minutes ago, Crewton said: It's a "deemed consent" decision, meaning that a meeting did not have to be held because less than 10% of the creditors in value objected to the proposed decision/Administrators proposals. It was made on 1st December. There's no other indication of what those proposals were. They could be a proposal for payment to the various class of creditors. They could be a decision to appoint a liquidator, although I'm doubtful that that would have passed under the deemed consent option this early in the process - but I stress it's not impossible, just unlikely IMHO. Thank you, Crewton. I have no idea who you are, but because you said it so confidently and clearly (and I know literally nothing about these processes myself!) I automatically believe what you’re saying is true ? Given the document is dated the 3rd Dec, and it became visible on the 15th, is it more likely that the “10 days to view this document” have already passed? And that means no further information will become available on 24th Dec? If so, maybe we are slightly further on than we thought. If this document is confirmation that DCFC’s creditors agree to the administrators’ proposals, surely that is a huge hurdle overcome? Any company law experts on here able to confirm? Maybe the meeting today between administrators and supporters groups might be a place where we find out more. Here’s hoping.

PistoldPete Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Jackson said on last call that HMRC had not (yet) disagreed with their proposals . Not sure if that counts as deemed consent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'd always advise people to check out more than one opinion - I'm not an insolvency expert (see @StrawHillRamcomment above which may well be pertinent too). I'm guessing that further clarity SHOULD be forthcoming from the supporter's group meeting with Quantuma today - fingers-crossed it's positive, but I'd advise caution until we get something certain. Administrations can turn into liquidations very easily and very quickly, but I don't feel that the Admins could move to the nuclear option now because a January fire sale would raise far more with them still searching for a Buyer than if it was done by a Liquidator and that has to be a consideration when looking to get the most money for creditors.

January fire sales are not the answer. Selling players for less than they are worth could put buyers off. r_wilcockson and strawhillram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elwood P Dowd Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 The deemed consent procedure is that relevant creditors/contributories are given notice: Of the matter about which they are to make a decision Of the decision that is proposed That if less than the number of relevant creditors/contributories object to the proposed decision, the creditors are treated as having made the decision That if more than the number of relevant creditors/contributories object to the proposed decision, the decision is treated as not having been made That if the same decision is sought, it must be using a qualifying decision procedure, and Of the procedure for objecting to the proposed decision. The number of relevant creditors is 10% in value. “Relevant creditors” and "relevant contributories" means creditors/contributories who, if the decision were to be made by a decision procedure, would be entitled to vote.

kevinhectoring Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I’d guess the unsecured creditors had little option but to accept these proposals. But HMRC is in a different class of creditors and I’d think the admins can’t pick a preferred bidder until they have finalised a deal with HMRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !! Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Appears the appeal against the 12 point deduction is still ongoing. 5.15 statement of proposals .
