Updated SIP 9 Guidance Notes

It has just been brought to our attention R3 have now updated the Guidance Notes for creditors to reflect the changes made to SIP 9 in November 2011. We don’t know when these were changed, but you should immediately start using them for all cases commenced on or after 6 April 2010, either directing creditors to the page of the R3 web-site where they can be found - http://www.r3.org.uk/index.cfm?page=1591 – or putting a copy of them on your own web-site and directing creditors to that. A quick reminder that paragraph 7 of SIP 9 requires you to direct creditors to a suitable explanatory note in the first communication with creditors following appointment and in each subsequent report to creditors.
