    I really should update my story to include the news on DRO’s which came out last month:


    I must thank SSAngel for letting me know on 14th November about the change due to come into effect in April 2011 which will mean that Mr 3Dogs will also be able to apply for a DRO. Many representations had been made regarding the anomaly that meant that pension funds were being treated as an asset in terms of a DRO when it did not count in Bankruptcy. After much consultation, The Insolvency Service announced that such pension funds will no longer count as an asset for a DRO with effect from April 2011. When I originally checked out DRO’s, etc, we soon realised that Mr 3Dogs would not be eligible as he has a small pension fund from opting out of the Government Scheme for a while and also, a tiny pension fund, from the period he was self-employed


    We are currently paying token £1 payments to Mr 3Dogs’ creditors but, with this change in the regulations, he will be able to apply for a DRO as well in April 2011. When I get back home, I will write to his creditors with a new offer (about £15 to £20 to each per month) promising a review in 6 months. This should see us through to his DRO being applied for and, hopefully, awarded


    Future looks brighter all the time :T :T :T :T

    She was so kind to me when i was down the other day. Thank you all for being there for me. It's a reminder i should check my blood sugars when you tell me too.

    I must remember to ask Frit to invent a new insulin for me.
