Restructuring Plans · glossary

Sufficient connection

A real tie between a plan and England, which the court needs before it acts for a foreign company. Valkenrade is Dutch, but both its plan debts are under English law and let creditors sue in the English courts. Explanatory Statement, paragraph 8.2 · Chapter 2

Explained in Chapter 2, Restructuring Plan vs Scheme of Arrangement vs WHOA, of Restructuring Plans.

How it comes up, in Chapter 2
Valkenrade is a foreign company, so a second question follows. Part 26A reaches a foreign company that the court could wind up (close down and sell off), and Valkenrade is one. The court must also find a sufficient connection with England, a real tie between the plan and this country.
