Conduct: Between 31 December 2020 and 23 February 2023 (“liquidation”), Mr Jamie William Barr (“Mr Barr”) failed to discharge your duties as company director in ensuring the company maintain, preserve and deliver up as requested of accounting records for Gallowgate Ltd (“the company”). Consequently, the liquidator and The Insolvency Service have been prevented from verifying: the position in relation to company assets: • The company accounts 30 August 2019 to 31 August 2020, signed by Mr Jamie Barr on 28 October 2021 showed fixed assets of £22,744 • And current assets, including stock, cash at bank and in hand, and debtors of £71,792 or which £64,466 was debtors at 31 August 2020. the position regarding the company’s income: • Company bank statements for the period 31 December 2020 to 23 February 2023, the date the company ceased trading, reveals credits totalling £538,293. In absence of company accounting records it is not possible to determine if these amounts are a true reflection of the income achieved during the period of trading. the position regarding the company’s expenditure: • Company bank statements for the period 31 December 2020 to 23 February 2023 reveals expenditure totalling £579,701. In the absence of accounting records or engagement with the director it has not been possible to determine if these amounts are bona fide business transactions. • In the absence of company accounting records it has not been possible to verify £179,478 miscellaneous payments between 11 January 2021 to 16 November 2021 and if they were for the benefit of the company. the true position regarding the company’s tax liability: • In the absence of company accounting records it has not been possible to identify and verify when the company should have registered for VAT and the true liability owed by the company to HMRC in respect of VAT between 31 December 2020 to 23 February 2023. The inability to identify and verify the financial position of the company at liquidation has been further exacerbated as a consequence of you causing the company to fail to comply with its statutory obligations in that: • In the absence of adequate company accounting records it is not possible to determine the whereabouts of these assets and whether they have been disposed of for the benefit of the company • That you caused the company to fail to prepare and file annual accounts to 31 August 2021 with the Registrar at Companies House by 31 August 2022. • That you caused the company to fail to prepare and submit HMRC VAT returns for 12 consecutive VAT quarters between January 2020 and February 2023, resulting in HMRC issuing VAT assessments and surcharges. At the date of liquidation HMRC estimated a liability of £76,197. Without the accounting records and late registration for VAT it has not been possible to verify if this figure is correct.
