Companies Investigation Branch
Inspectors’ Reports
Whilst the vast majority of enquiries conducted by Companies Investigation Branch are confidential enquiries under Section 447 of the Companies Act 1985, over the years the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry has appointed Inspectors under other sections of the Act (or earlier legislation) that allow for the publication of a report.
Inspections are normally carried out where the company involved is a major plc and the matters subject to enquiry are of significant public interest.
A complete chronological list of published reports can be found here.
Some of the most recent are available to view online.
We plan to add more downloadable reports over time. If the report you seek is not yet available (and check with us for the very latest position; E mail enquiry@cib.gsi.gov.uk. We will reply by the next working day) you might like to contact either of the following who may be able to provide a copy for a charge:
