## From the administrators' statement

The following background is based on information provided by the directors.

The Company was incorporated on 25 May 1988 as part of the programme of privatisation of the UK’s water utility sector. Following incorporation, it continued to operate as an independent centre for water utilities and other organisations to carry out research and development into water and associated projects. It was a Plc due to its share capital being higher than £50,000. The shares were not traded on any exchange.

The Company had a registered office at Frankland Road, Blagrove, Swindon, Wiltshire SN5 8YF. The Company previously traded from that address and was the location for most of the staff. The Company’s staff (as distinct from those of Water Research Centre Limited or any other company) had been transferred away as part of previous restructurings. Water Research Centre Limited undertook the trading acitivities for the group
