    How To Close My Insolvent LTD Company

    How To Close My Insolvent LTD Company

    New law to stop spongebob plan??

    Thanks - I have seen these comments in many places too. However, I cannot find anything about it in the Finance Bill. Maybe it was left out for some reason? Or maybe I am searching for the wrong words in the Bill.

    I thought so too but I have scoured the latest finance bill and can find no mention of this. Do you know which paragraph it is in?
