# The Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016, Rule 7.106


(1) The court may adjourn the public examination from time to time, either to a fixed date or generally.
(2) Where the examination has been adjourned generally, the court may at any time on the application of the official receiver or of the examinee—
(a) fix a venue for the resumption of the examination; and
(b) give directions as to the manner in which, and the time within which, notice of the resumed public examination is to be given to persons entitled to take part in it.
(3) An order adjourning the public examination to a fixed date must contain a warning to the examinee that failure without reasonable excuse to attend the public examination at the time and place specified in the order will make the examinee liable to be arrested without further notice under section 134(2); and that the examinee will also be guilty of contempt of court under section 134(1) and be liable to be committed to prison or fined.
(4) Where an application to resume an examination is made by the examinee, the court may grant it on terms that the examinee must pay the expenses of giving the notices required by paragraph (2) and that, before a venue for the resumed public examination is fixed, the examinee must deposit with the official receiver such sum as the official receiver considers necessary to cover those expenses.
