Income contributions during bankruptcy for student loan
Michael Rescue made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice
The request was successful.
From: Michael Rescue
Dear Ministry of Justice,
On how many occasions have individuals had there income garnished or been asked to make contributions to the Official Assignee from their salary and earnings after having been made bankrupt in New Zealand whilst living in Australia?
I am particularly interested in the occasions when the only or main debt being cleared
by the New Zealand Bankruptcy is outstanding Student Loan Debt.
Also, on the occasions when the bankrupt individual has refused to make income contributions from their Australian salary, how has the New Zealand Official Assignee attempted to enforce these income contributions and has it been successful?
Yours faithfully,
Michael Rescue
