Companies Act 2014 section 1333

Provisions of this Chapter to be cumulative

Section 1333 establishes that the winding-up rules for unregistered companies in this Chapter operate in addition to, and do not replace, the general court winding-up provisions in Part 11.

• The winding-up provisions for unregistered companies are cumulative — they add to, rather than restrict, the existing Part 11 court winding-up rules.
• The court retains all powers it would normally exercise when winding up a company formed and registered under the Companies Act 2014.
• A liquidator of an unregistered company may exercise the same powers and carry out the same acts as a liquidator of a registered company.
• This ensures there is no gap in authority or procedure when dealing with the winding up of an unregistered company through the court.
