One of the types of insolvency covered by the statutory instrument is the insolvency proceeding based on a debt repayment plan, which has a remedy character and that involves a negotiation between the debtor and the creditor sand, depending on the result, a repayment plan. The administrative proceeding based on a debt repayment plan is opened at the debtor's request to the insolvency commission. The debtor's request must include data and information on the debtor's patrimony and its civil and professional status in order to assess its economic and financial situation and the chances of recovery. The examination of the application is made by the insolvency commission and in the result report is issued an admission or rejection decision. If the application is accepted, the proceeding is opened and the steps to approve a debt repayment plan are followed. The decision of the insolvency commission is communicated to the debtor and can be challenged before the court, that is, at the court where the debtor had his domicile or residence at least 6 months prior to the referral.
