Article 34L Receivers in connection with interim freezing ordersF1

This article applies where the High Court makes an interim freezing order on an application by an enforcement authority.

The court may, on an application by the enforcement authority, by order appoint a receiver in respect of any property to which the interim freezing order applies.

An application under paragraph (2) may be made at the same time as the application for the interim freezing order or at any time afterwards.

The application may be made without notice if the circumstances of the case are such that notice of the application would give rise to a risk of any external order that might subsequently be obtained being frustrated.

In its application the enforcement authority must nominate a suitably qualified person for appointment as a receiver.

The person nominated may be a member of staff of the enforcement authority.
