  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order.)\nThis Order amends the Insolvency (Fees) Order (Northern Ireland) 1991 by altering the scales (so far as they relate to amounts over £5 million) for two of the ad valorem fees charged in insolvency proceedings. The changes will result in reduced ad valorem fees for amounts over £20 million.\nIt also introduces three new fees to be charged in company and individual insolvency proceedings to which the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 applies. A fee is introduced for:\n(a) applications by a liquidator to the Department or the official receiver to exercise the powers of a liquidation committee;\n(b) the peformance by the Department of its functions in relation to the administration of the affairs of companies which are being wound up voluntarily; and\n(c) applications by a trustee to the Department or the official receiver to exercise the powers of a creditors' committee.",
