From the Professional Accountancy team…...
The Institute held three in-person events in early March 2026 in Cork, Galway and Dublin. Sarah Jane O’Keeffe, Partner in Azets, and Derek Wilson, former inspector in the Institute presented at the well-attended events and provided attendees with great practical examples. Attendees were given a comprehensive overview of the Creditors Voluntary Liquidation Handbook published last year to assist Liquidators in complying with legislative and Statement of Insolvency Practice (SIP) requirements when conducting statutory meetings, reporting to creditors and approval of remuneration. The sessions also covered compliance matters and potential issues and problems that can arise and how to avoid or best navigate these.
Attendees were also reminded of the resource available from the Corporate Enforcement Authority the form of the Liquidator’s report on conduct of directors in a winding up of an insolvent company.
Finally, readers are reminded to check out the Professional Accountancy Team’s Technical Hub which includes a dedicated Insolvency section and to keep up to date with other technical material also.
