U.S. Department of State Advisory Committee on Private 
International Law (ACPIL): Public Meeting on Insolvency-Related 
Judgments and Enterprise Group Insolvency Issues

    The Office of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Private International 
Law, Department of State, gives notice of a public meeting to discuss 
ongoing work in the United Nations Commission on International Trade 
Law (UNCITRAL) related to the recognition and enforcement of 
insolvency-derived judgments and the insolvency of cross-border 
enterprise groups. The public meeting will take place on Monday, May 
11, 2015 from 9:30 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. EDT. This is not a meeting of 
the full Advisory Committee.
    In 2014, the UNCITRAL Commission gave Working Group V a mandate to 
develop a model law or model legislative provisions on the recognition 
and enforcement of insolvency-related judgments. The Working Group 
began

[[Page 22257]]

its discussions of this topic in December 2014. For the report of this 
session, see document A/CN.9/829, available at http://www.uncitral.org/uncitral/en/commission/working_groups/5Insolvency.html.
    Also at its December 2014 session, Working Group V continued its 
efforts to address enterprise group insolvency issues. It plans to 
develop model legislative provisions that would facilitate the cross-
border insolvency of enterprise group members, addressing topics such 
as provision of access to foreign courts for representatives and 
creditors of insolvency proceedings involving enterprise group members, 
provision of standing for group members to participate in the 
insolvency proceedings of other members, the use of synthetic 
proceedings, and appropriate forms of relief.
    The purpose of the public meeting is to obtain the views of 
concerned stakeholders on draft instruments prepared by the UNCITRAL 
Secretariat on both topics: The recognition and enforcement of 
insolvency-related judgments and the insolvency of cross-border 
enterprise groups. The drafts will be posted by the Secretariat at 
http://www.uncitral.org/uncitral/en/commission/working_groups/5Insolvency.html
    Time and Place: The meeting will take place on May 11, 2015, from 
9:30 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. via a teleconference. Those who cannot 
participate but wish to comment are welcome to do so by email to Tim 
Schnabel at [email protected].
    Public Participation: This meeting is open to the public. If you 
would like to participate by telephone, please email [email protected] to 
obtain the call-in number and other information.
