Commentary on Sections Article 208G: Moratorium from qualifying debts
Article 208G sets out further effects of a DRO. A moratorium in relation to the debts specified in the order takes effect on the order being entered in the register. Any petition, action or other proceeding by a creditor to whom a specified debt is owed which is pending in any court can be stayed by that court. During the moratorium creditors specified in the order are prohibited from taking proceedings to enforce their debts or presenting bankruptcy proceedings in relation to those debts, except with the leave of the High Court.
