Answered by Margot James
Companies House is not required to identify limited partnerships in such a way as to ascertain whether they are qualifying partnerships under The Companies and Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) Regulations 2013. Consequently, it does not capture this information in any direct way and could only obtain it at disproportionate cost.

Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what discussions he has had with relevant stakeholders on the potential effect on the UK's insolvency and restructuring regime of the UK leaving the EU.
Answered by Margot James
Over the past few months the Government has engaged with businesses and key stakeholders up and down the country including those with interests in the UK’s insolvency and restructuring regime, and will continue to do so going forward. We are listening to their concerns and aiming to limit uncertainty in the transition to ensure our new relationship with the EU works for business.
It is vital now, more than ever, that we have open and honest conversations about both the challenges that leaving the EU poses, but crucially also the opportunities that will become open to us.
