Section A17

The table imposes obligations on the directors of a company to notify the monitor where a moratorium for the company is extended or comes to an end. After receiving a notice under subsection (1), other than a notice under entry 4 or 6 of the table, the monitor must notify the relevant persons of when the moratorium ended or, subject to any alteration under or by virtue of any of the provisions mentioned in section A9(3) or (4), the moratorium will come to an end. After receiving a notice under entry 4 or 6 of the table, the monitor must notify the relevant persons. If a moratorium comes to an end under section A38 (termination by monitor), the monitor must notify the company and the relevant persons of when the moratorium ended. The rules may— make further provision about the timing of a notice required to be given under this section; require a notice to be accompanied by other documents. If the directors fail to comply with subsection (1), any director who did not have a reasonable excuse for the failure commits an offence. If the monitor without reasonable excuse fails to comply with any of subsections (2) to (4), the monitor commits an offence. In this section the relevant persons means— the registrar of companies, every creditor of the company of whose claim the monitor is aware, in a case where the company is or has been an employer in respect of an occupational pension scheme that is not a money purchase scheme, the Pensions Regulator, and in a case where the company is an employer in respect of such a pension scheme that is an eligible scheme within the meaning given by section 126 of the Pensions Act 2004, the Board of the Pension Protection Fund.
