The Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 (Consequential Amendments) (Bankruptcy) and the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 (Consequential Amendments) Regulations 2016

These Regulations make amendments in connection with section 71 of the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 as a result of the new procedure introduced by that section in England and Wales for a debtor to apply for their own bankruptcy. A debtor must make an application to an adjudicator instead of petitioning the court.
