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

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many companies have been registered at Companies House that have persons with significant control based in Russia since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Between 24 February and 3 March 2022, 28 new companies and one new limited liability partnership were incorporated reporting Russian nationals as registrable in accordance with PSC legislation. In the same period 9 further companies updated their details to report that a Russian national had become registrable under the same legislation. It should be noted that PSC information is provided by companies and is not verified by Companies House.
