Summary
Councils in the UK can be held liable for vehicle damage caused by potholes if they were aware of the issue and failed to repair it in a reasonable time. Drivers may need to provide evidence of the damage and the pothole. Limited companies in England are required to submit annual accounts under the Companies Act 2006, specifically Section 441. Failure to comply can result in fines and penalties as outlined in Section 451. Companies House enforces these requirements and has specific deadlines based on the companys accounting reference date. If Companies House lacks staff, it may delay processing but does not affect legal obligations. Continued non-compliance can lead to increased penalties and legal actions.Full Conversation
