Whether companies operating a scheme to enable property owners to avoid liability for national non-domestic rates (‘NNDR’ or ‘business rates’) in respect of unoccupied commercial properties, in the form of what is referred to in the judgment below as ‘Scheme 3’, should be wound up on public interest grounds because it is said that their business model ‘lacks commercial probity in their operation of Scheme Three which misuses and/or abuses and/or subverts the insolvency legislation and process’.
