About this statute

This provision sets up the Tribunal structure, appointments, review/appeal powers, and some limits on when the tribunals can act. This provision lets the Court of Session transfer some applications to the Upper Tribunal, and sets the Upper Tribunal’s role after transfer. It also gives the Lord Chancellor and tribunal leadership powers over tribunal procedure, staffing, fees, and administration. This provision gives and limits various powers around judicial appointments, enforcement agents, rent recovery, and debt enforcement, and it also sets out several approval and consultation requirements for the Lord Chancellor and other bodies. The provision lets courts request and use debtor information, and sets rules for administration orders and enforcement restriction orders, including notice, disclosure limits, debtor reporting duties, and offences for unauthorised use or disclosure. The section sets rules for debt management schemes, debt repayment plans, and related protections for non-business debtors.
