Statements of Insolvency Practice (SIPs)
SIPs set principles and key compliance standards with which insolvency practitioners are required to comply. Failure to observe the principles and/or maintain the standards set out in a SIP is a matter that may be considered by a practitioner's regulatory authority for the purposes of disciplinary or regulatory action in accordance with that authority's membership and disciplinary rules.
