Petitions to wind up (Companies) 23 Oct 2026
A petition was filed on 8 October 2026 to wind up The Portland Arms (Scotland) Ltd, and interested parties must file answers with Kilmarnock Sheriff Court within eight days of notice.
What happens next
At the hearing the court decides whether to make a winding-up order. Until it does, the petition can still be dismissed or withdrawn — if the debt is paid, if it is genuinely disputed on substantial grounds, if the company has a cross-claim larger than the debt, or if the court is persuaded to adjourn while a rescue or refinancing is put in place. If an order is made, the company stops trading, its bank accounts are frozen, control passes to the Official Receiver and a liquidator is appointed to sell the assets and pay creditors in the order fixed by law.
