answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/02/2018 answer text <p>For the official receiver, the amount of time an investigation takes is dependent on the size and complexity of the business. As this is a large and complex case, it is not possible at this early stage to specify a timeframe. Should the official receiver find any evidence of director misconduct this would be referred to the Insolvency Service for further investigation. The Secretary of State has not received any provisional conclusions from the investigation, nor would he expect to do so from either the official receiver or the insolvency service. Investigations by the official receiver and the insolvency service are conducted separately from Ministers, as is the making of decisions arising from investigations on any possible prosecution or director’s disqualification.</p><p>For the Financial Reporting Council, the timing of the investigation depends on the size and complexity of the issues to be considered, but will be taken forward as quickly as possible. At the conclusion of an investigation, the matter may be referred to an independent tribunal which the FRC would convene for the purpose of hearing the case and determining final sanction.</p> answering member constituency Burton answering member printed Andrew Griffiths question first answered 28/02/2018 15:47:43 answering member 3936 label Biography information for Andrew Griffiths

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/02/2018 answer text <p>Some elements of TUPE do not apply in liquidation, specifically the continuity of service to those employees who transfer to new employers.</p><p> </p><p>Importing employers may well decide to offer terms to transferring employees which recognise existing employment rights; that is a matter for the importing employer, though the Government has the aspiration to ensure transferred employees are no worse off. The Official Receiver is doing all he can to facilitate this wherever possible.</p> answering member constituency Burton answering member printed Andrew Griffiths question first answered 28/02/2018 14:19:03 answering member 3936 label Biography information for Andrew Griffiths
