I propose to take Questions Nos. 391, 393 and 395 together.

The following Table sets out the information sought by the Deputy:

Total no. of six monthly abstracts filed in 2012 in respect of companies in receivership

Total no. delivered later than the statutory deadline

2102

1543

The CRO is the central repository of public statutory information on Irish companies and business names. The CRO organises the data that it receives by company name and registered number and makes this information searchable and accessible to the public on its website via either the name or number data-field. The data is not stored nor indexed according to “receiver appointed” or any other individuals or officers associated with a company. It is, therefore, not possible to list the names of individual receivers as the database is not searchable in this way.

In addition, it is not possible to readily extract statistics on the number of six monthly abstracts filed in respect of companies in receivership, that were incomplete (returned to the presenter for correction) on first submission to the CRO.
