Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Insolvency Service of Ireland: Discussion
2:40 pm
Mr. Lorcan O'Connor:
Assuming the amendments to the courts legislation are passed at the end of this month, in effect, when somebody applies and gets a debt relief note or when somebody gets a protective certificate, he or he will go on a register which will be updated depending on the status of his or her case. Let us say one begins as a protective certificate candidate, and then there is a PIA in one's name and one is running down from year seven to year six to year five and so on. Ultimately, when one has successfully completed one's debt relief notice, debt settlement arrangement or personal insolvency arrangement, one's details are taken off that register three months later. In terms of what details will be on that register, it will be the name, address and year of birth of the debtor.
