From the administrators' statement
DLL was incorporated in 2006. It operated as the central finance and administration function for all of the companies controlled and operated by its director, Jim Tullis. These include companies that are not subject to insolvency proceedings and over which we have not been appointed.
The Company also operated The Newsroom bar situated at S - 11 Leith Street, Edinburgh. The lease for these premises is held by a separate company, Domemajor Limited, which is not subject to these insolvency proceedings. The business and assets of The Newsroom bar was transferred to a new company, The Newsroom Bar Limited, shortly prior to our appointment. This is discussed further at paragraph 8.3.
At the date of our appointment, the Company employed a total of 67 staff, 8 of whom worked principally for DLL. The remaining 59 employees are the staff of EEL and ENL although they are employed and paid through DLL.
