answer text <p>The Government consulted on a wide-ranging package of reforms to corporate insolvency generally in 2018 and there are no plans to review the use of Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVA’s) at this time. CVA’s are a valuable part of the restructuring framework. Following this consultation, Government announced it will strengthen the powers available to insolvency practitioners to take recovery action where value has been extracted from a company prior to its insolvency, thereby increasing the protections already available to creditors. These proposals will be introduced when parliamentary time permits.</p> more like this
