    Hi, I was working with a company for 6 months and they went into liquidation in Nov 2009. We had to go through the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Innovation (DETI) for our Payment in lieu and holiday pay that we were entitled to.

    I have just received my cheque from the liquidator, with one weeks notice and a payment of 255 less deductions?! I am so confused! Would I not be entitled to 2 weeks payment in lieu? Also I got a payslip from the liquidator...I don't know why because I got my P45 and the company haven't been trading since 2009. Would the PAYE and USC deductions from my holiday pay not be made by DETI instead of the liquidator? Any help appreciated, as I will be ringing the liquidator today, thanks.

    You were entitled to one weeks holiday and one weeks notice as you were only wnployed for 6 months. The liquidator is responsible for making deductions from your wages as it has to pay the revenue the tax owed by you and your fellow worker in lieu of the company directors.

    Everything you have said is correct in accordance with the liquidation process.
