Amendment No. 39 is a technical drafting amendment to further refine the text to include reference to the provision of the advice in writing. The purpose of amendment No. 43 is to make clear that where the advice of a personal insolvency practitioner under section 48(1) is that the debtor should not make a proposal for, or enter into, an arrangement, the personal insolvency practitioner is required to notify the insolvency service of that fact, and the appointment of the personal insolvency practitioner under section 46(3) shall come to an end.
