Proceeding contribution from Andrea Leadsom (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 March 2022. It occurred during Debate on bill on Economic Crime (Transparency and Enforcement) Bill.


Economic Crime (Transparency and Enforcement) Bill

I have been in the Chamber since my right hon. Friend started speaking. She might be aware that over many years one of the problems with Companies House has been the capability of a small business to register a name, take our money by selling us something, not deliver the goods, then go into liquidation and set up again the next day with almost the same name, perhaps with “and sons” at the end of it. Can she reassure me that this Bill will deal with that issue, in the changes to Companies House?
