Resignation during a period of uncertainty

[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']Hello,[/FONT]
[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif'] [/FONT]
[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']So, our company is an SME, IT Services Company, and is in the process of calling in the administrators (next week 14 Dec 2011) to 'potentially' dissolve the business. When the final decision is made we are all facing lay off and those of us eligible for severance pay will be applying for statutory redundancy.[/FONT]

[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']I'm personally on 4 weeks’ notice and am fortunate enough to have already been offered a new job starting 09 Jan.[/FONT]
[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif'] [/FONT]
[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']So my question is, if I hand in my notice today (last possible day to make up 4 weeks’ notice) and the company does in fact go into administration will I still be eligible to claim for redundancy even if I have already given in my notice?
