As far as I am aware the DAS does not cut through exhisting dlligence Mark. However there will be more experienced DAS advisors on here.

DAS puts a stop to new diligence.

With existing diligence, DAS will lift an arrestment. It won't lift an inhibition.

There can be some technical points around timing, because there are several periods of DAS 'protection' from diligence - intimation; the time between the application going to creditors/the DAS Administrator and the DAS being approved; the time after the DAS has been approved.

The inhibiting creditor would need to check that the commencement of the inhibition didn't happen during one of those periods of protection, to be sure that the inhibition is competent.

If it is competent, then the inhibiting creditor could stop the sale of the house.

I'm not sure if they'd be able to renew the inhibition further down the line, if a DPP was in place.

Thanks candlewick.

I was hoping that you'd add your DAS knowledge to this thread.

I wonder if anyone knows the answer to the question about renewing an inhibition during a debt arrangement scheme?

I know a trustee can renew, but have a feeling the creditor needs to re do the inhibition.

Something I'll check out as it gets mega complex and covers about 4 bits of legislation all interweaving!!

I'm not certain, but think that an inhibiting creditor could renew their inhibition if it is due to expire regardless of a DAS DPP being in place - as long as the inhibition was first registered before the debtor was protected by their DAS.
