I have been looking at ways of tracking some small company accounts fron the 1920s forward but with no surviving archive of published accounts around. There are some in Companies House and I was thinking I could get two for the price of one if the prior year results were shown for comparison. My first forays have been disappointing (up to 1920) as only 'current year' results were filed. Does anyone know when the requirement ot show current and prior year figures became part of Company Law (England & Wales)? Reply off list please. Many thanks, Gil Upton

Hello Gilbert, Have you tried to contact the D.T.I. (suggest google) they may be able to answer your question on company law. regards Barbara NORTHWICH. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gilbert Upton" <uptonga@cybase.co.uk> To: <BIRKENHEAD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, March 08, 2002 11:09 PM Subject: [BKHD] OFF TOPIC - Company accounts > I have been looking at ways of tracking some small > company accounts fron the 1920s forward but with no > surviving archive of published accounts around.
