Confidential information
Re Comet Group Ltd [2020] EWHC 131 (Ch), [2020] All ER (D) 141 (Jan)
Confidentiality restrictions that had been placed on information and documents contained within court files and judgments, which had contained information obtained by the Insolvency Service, pursuant to ss 447 and 449 of the Companies Act 1985, would be lifted. The Chancery Division, allowing the applicant liquidator’s application, held that, where information had been supplied by an investigating body for the purpose of a hearing conducted in a court of competent jurisdiction, it thereafter became the subject of the supervision by the court on the issue of the maintenance of confidentiality and if it was appropriate for it to continue and, in the circumstances of the present case, it had been appropriate for the restrictions to be lifted.
