A simple typo from Companies House had caused 250 people to lose their jobs – and they won’t be receiving a pay-out in compensation.
Wales Online reports that back in 2009, Companies House mistakenly recorded Taylor & Sons Ltd as having been wound up, instead of another entirely unconnected company – Taylor & Son Ltd. As a result, the firm’s business ran dry, orders were cancelled, and credit facilities were withdrawn. Ultimately, the business ended up in administration.
