Yes. In England and Wales an administrator's powers under Schedule 1 to the Insolvency Act 1986 and a liquidator's under Schedule 4 include selling company property, and a copy licence of the company's records is a realisation of that property. Personal data in the records stays under UK GDPR whoever holds it.
What the officeholder can convey
What the company owned. Employee-written mail, documents, drawings and code usually belong to the company. Client files, licensed software, third-party data and material a customer owns usually do not, and are carved out before anything moves.
Personal data
Names of staff, customers and suppliers run through every real record. The officeholder settles the lawful basis and any exclusions with counsel, and the licence is scoped to match. HR files, health information and special category data are excluded by default.
Why it helps the realisation
Records are usually written off as having no value, then cost money to store and destroy. A licence turns them into a distribution to creditors while the originals stay where retention rules need them.
Other jurisdictions
Ireland, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa give their liquidators equivalent powers of sale under their own companies or insolvency acts. The question is always the same two: did the company own it, and does local data protection law allow the transfer.
