Question: What changes must I make to our company's systems / procedures so that we fully abide with the Act's requirements, when giving "Commercial Credit" ?

The Company has just received a request, via a solicitor, for the return of a "Preferential Payment", regarding a Debtor who went into Liquidation in 1996.

Question: How long can payment be considered "Preferential" as far as a Liquidation is concerned?

We have a COD customer who purchased stock with a cheque that subsequently was marked "Refer to Drawer" when presented to our bank. The stock had already been delivered and our company has a "Retention of Title" clause on all required documents.

Can we

1. Demand the customer stop using out stock untill payment is made in full?

2. Remove our stock from the customers property without resorting to Legal Action?
