To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will make it his policy to amend the Companies Act 2006 to reduce the number of recognised supervisory bodies.
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has no such plans. The Recognised Supervisory Bodies have an important role in approving and registering statutory auditors, inspecting their work and investigating possible instances of professional misconduct. The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) oversees the work of RSBs and has particular responsibilities of its own where there is a public interest in an independent body fulfilling these tasks.

This answer does not consider obligations on companies and other businesses generally such as employment regulation, environmental regulation or for reasons of public safety, or those bodies that have general responsibilities in respect of criminal investigations and prosecutions. The categorisation of bodies reflects the categorisation used for government accounting purposes and the application of the requirements of managing public money.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will exercise his powers under the Companies Act 2006 to wind up Business Bank Italy Limited.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will exercise his powers under the Companies Act 2006 to wind up Business Bank Italy Limited.
Unless it is already in voluntary liquidation, a company may only be wound up by a petition to the Court. There are no provisions in the Companies Act 2006 for the Secretary of State for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy to present a petition to wind a company up; these are contained in the Insolvency Act 1986.
The Secretary of State for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy may present a petition, as provided in the Insolvency Act 1986 only if he decides it is in the public interest to do so, having considered a report of information obtained by a statutory investigation into the company's affairs. I am not currently aware of any ongoing investigation into Business Bank Italy Limited.
