Commentary on Sections Winding up in Northern Ireland Section 428: Winding up under the 1989 Order
570.The Insolvency Act 1986 does not apply to company insolvencies in Northern Ireland. In Northern Ireland, the relevant legislation is the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989. This section contains provision similar to that in section 426, except that it deals with the situation where a company insolvency falls under the 1989 Order rather than the 1986 Act.
