Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answers by Lord Callanan on 2 November 2021 (HL3320) and 1 February (HL5516), what progress they have made in bringing criminal charges against KPMG's insolvency partner for misconduct during the Silentnight insolvency.

The Insolvency Service has reviewed the evidence in this case, including the contents of the Financial Reporting Counsel’s Disciplinary Tribunal Report. A decision was reached that it was not in the public interest to commence a criminal investigation.
