Business rescue, as defined by the Companies Act 2008, aims to facilitate the rehabilitation of a company that is "financially distressed" by providing for:
Once a company commences business rescue proceedings either voluntarily (section 129) or by an order of court (on application by an affected person) the following actions are prescribed by the act:
This serves to emphasise that business rescue is an urgent process, even though leeway is granted by the courts on these reporting periods, depending on the size and complexity of a business.
Section 133 of the Act makes provision for a general moratorium on legal proceedings, including any enforcement action, against a company, or any property belonging to a company or lawfully in its possession, while the company is subject to business rescue proceedings.
This moratorium is in order to grant the business rescue practitioner some breathing room while he attempts to rescue the company through the design and implementation of a business rescue plan.
