Explanation:

The Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986 was introduced partly to prevent directors of failed companies being able to walk away from the failed company without any personal liability towards the creditors and start a new company carrying on a very similar business. The court has the discretionary power to disqualify persons as directors for various reasons and in some circumstances it must disqualify them.
