As a temporary response to the impact of the Coronavius outbreak, Companies House have changed the way in which they deal with applications for voluntary striking-off.
The first Gazette notice will be published as usual once the application has been made.
However, the further action to strike the company off will not be taken at this time (as a temporary measure to protect any creditors, or any other parties who may wish to object to the company being struck off).
(Companies House will be reviewing this again on 1st June 2020).
