# The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) (Amendment) Regulations 1987, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which come into force on 24th April 1987, amend regulation 4(1) of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 1981 so that it applies where the administrator of a company transfers the company`s undertaking to a wholly owned subsidiary, as it applies where such a transfer is made by the receiver or, in the case of a creditors` voluntary winding up, the liquidator. They implement Council Directive No. 77/187/EEC in the light of Part II of the Insolvency Act 1986 (c. 45), which makes provision in respect of administration orders.
