This consultation seeks comments on the proposals to introduce procedures for further education and sixth-form colleges which become insolvent (unable to pay their debts). The proposals include a Special Administration Regime, giving extra protection to ensure continuity of service.

We are proposing insolvency procedures for colleges in line with those given to companies under the , including administration and liquidation.

• creditors of further education and sixth form colleges
