2022 was a monumental year for R3’s Press, Policy and Public Affairs Team, with work on three high-profile issues: regulatory reform, reforms to Companies House, and a call for evidence on the personal insolvency framework

Having called for a review of the personal insolvency framework for sometime, in September we welcomed the opportunity to submit evidence and offer our thoughts on how it could be improved.

In this blog, we look at key objectives of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill, track its progress through Parliament so far and consider how the legislation will affect the insolvency profession.

Earlier this year, the Insolvency Service published its call for evidence on the personal insolvency framework. In this blog, we break down the call for evidence and outline key member questions and concerns.

In this blog, we break down the key recommendations to help tackle fraud outlined in R3's paper, ‘Insolvency and the fight against fraud’.

In this blog, we look at annual data from the Insolvency Service that breaks down how the scheme has been used by different people from different locations across England and Wales.

A mention in the House of Commons, work on our response to the personal insolvency framework review and continued media interest in the profession and its work have kept R3's PPP team busy in October.

The start of Autumn has been busy for R3’s PPP team, with the launch of a new fraud paper, work to source member feedback on the personal insolvency framework and the publication of a new bill to help tackle economic crime.

In the final summer month, R3’s Press, Policy and Public Affairs team were busy preparing for a number of upcoming legislative changes, Bills and a new fraud paper – all of which are due in the coming weeks and months.
