## From the administrators' statement

The Company carried on the business of a labour supply agency, operating within the UK. It specialised in providing labour to the Mechanical & Electrical, Trades and Labour and Asbestos Removal sectors throughout the UK. It was incorporated on 24 October 2016 and its registered office was at Breakspear Park, Breakspear Way, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, HP2 4TZ. The Company was initially incorporated as New Co (Recruitment) Limited. On 4 November 2016, it changed its name to Opus Labour Services Ltd. The sole director of the Company is Jason Gerald Giller (“Mr Giller’), owning 100% of the issued share capital of the Company.

The Company employed 3 members of staff and its annual turnover for the year ending 31 October 2019 was circa £8.7M.

Subject to our investigation of the Company's affairs in the period leading up to our appointment, the principal reason for the insolvency of the Company appears to be as a result of allegations made by HM Revenue & Customs ("HMRC") that the Company was using its VAT registration for fraudulent purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, as far as we are aware, the Company has neither been indicted nor convicted of any VAT fraud.
