The main purpose of a liquidation where the company is insolvent is to collect its assets, determine the outstanding claims against the company, and satisfy those claims in the manner and order prescribed by law.
other
The liquidator must determine the company's title to property in its possession.
other
Property which is in the possession of the company, but which was supplied under a valid retention of title clause will generally have to be returned to the supplier.
other
Property which is held by the company on trust for third parties will not form part of the company's assets available to pay creditors.
other
Before the claims are met, secured creditors are entitled to enforce their claims against the assets of the company to the extent that they are subject to a valid security interest.
other
In most legal systems, only fixed security takes precedence over all claims; security by way of floating charge may be postponed to the preferential creditors.
other
Claimants with non-monetary claims against the company may be able to enforce their rights against the company.
other
For example, a party who had a valid contract for the purchase of land against the company may be able to obtain an order for specific performance, and compel the liquidator to transfer title to the land to them, upon tender of the purchase price.
other
After the removal of all assets which are subject to retention of title arrangements, fixed security, or are otherwise subject to proprietary claims of others, the liquidator will pay the claims against the company's assets.
other
Generally, the priority of claims on the company's assets will be determined in the following order:
other
Unclaimed assets will usually vest in the state as "bona vacantia".
other
Having wound-up the company's affairs, the liquidator must call a final meeting of the members (if it is a members' voluntary winding-up), creditors (if it is a compulsory winding-up) or both (if it is a creditors' voluntary winding-up).
other
The liquidator is then usually required to send final accounts to the Registrar and to notify the court.
other
The company is then dissolved.
other
However, in common jurisdictions, the court has a discretion for a period of time after dissolution to declare the dissolution void to enable the completion of any unfinished business.
other
In some jurisdictions, the company may elect to simply be struck off the companies register as a cheaper alternative to a formal winding-up and dissolution.
other
In such cases an application is made to the registrar of companies, who may strike off the company if there is reasonable cause to believe that the company is not carrying on business or has been wound-up and, after enquiry, no case is shown why the company should not be struck off.
other
However, in such cases the company may be restored to the register if it is just and equitable so to do (for example, if the rights of any creditors or members have been prejudiced).
other
In the event the company does not file an annual return or annual accounts, and the company's file remains inactive, in due course, the registrar will strike the company off the register.
other
Under the corporate insolvency laws of a number of common law jurisdictions, where a company has been engaged in misconduct or where the assets of the company are thought to be in jeopardy, it is sometimes possible to put a company into provisional liquidation, whereby a liquidator is appointed on an interim basis to s...
other
The duty of the provisional liquidator is to safeguard the assets of the company and maintain the status quo pending the hearing of the petition; the provisional liquidator does not assess claims against the company or try to distribute the company's assets to creditors.
other
In the UK, many companies in debt decide it is more beneficial to start again by creating a new company, often referred to as a "phoenix company".
other
In business terms this will mean liquidating a company as the only option and then resuming under a different name with the same customers, clients and suppliers.
other
In some circumstances it may appear ideal for the directors; however, if they trade under a name which is the same or substantially the same as the company in liquidation without approval from the Court, they will be committing an offence under §216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (and equivalent legislation in UK regions).
other
Persons participating in the management of the 'phoenix' company may also be held personally liable for the debts of the company under §217 of the Insolvency Act unless the Court approval has been granted.

Constituencies of Iceland
other
Iceland is divided into 6 constituencies for the purpose of selecting representatives to parliament.
other
The current division was established by a 1999 constitution amendment and was an attempt to balance the weight of different districts of the country whereby voters in the rural districts have greater representation per head than voters in Reykjavík city and its suburbs.
other
The new division comprises three countryside constituencies (NW, NE and S) and three city constituencies (RN, RS and SW).
other
The imbalance of votes between city and country still exists and a provision in the election law states that if the number of votes per seat in parliament in one constituency goes below half of what it is in any other constituency, one seat shall be transferred between them.
other
This has occurred twice, in the elections in 2007 and 2013.
other
On both occasions, a seat was transferred from the Northwest constituency to the Southwest constituency.

The constituencies are the following:

other
Martins (2005: 342–370) groups the Arawakan and Nadahup languages together as part of a proposed Makúan-Arawakan (Nadahup-Arawakan) family, but this proposal has been rejected by Aikhenvald (2006: 237).
