Recommendations[edit]
Rescue culture[edit]
The central argument of the report was that too many companies were simply left to die, when they could be revived, saved or brought to a close in a more orderly way. Cork advocated that the law should encourage a 'rescue culture', to restore companies back to profitability, which would be in the longer term interests of creditors.
Floating charges[edit]
It also said there was no place for automatic crystallisation of floating charges ‘in modern insolvency law’, on the basis that it would adversely affect other creditors and that the charge did not need to be registered.
Professional regulation[edit]
Cork recommended that private insolvency practitioners should be professionally regulated to ensureadequate standards of competence and integrity. Creditors be given a greater voice in the choice of the liquidator and new penalties and constraints be placed on errant directors. Cork also proposed reforms designed to increase the survival chances of firms in difficulties. He had informed the press, on the establishment of his committee, that many more companies could be saved if outside administrators could be brought into the process.
