Abstract

The London Gazette was first published as The Oxford Gazette in November 1665. It is Great Britain’s oldest continuously-published newspaper and it has a long history of publishing insolvency related information. This survey was commissioned in 2012 by TSO, publishers of The Gazette series, to investigate practitioner use of insolvency information in their publications. The following analysis derives from an invitation e-mailed to approximately 2,950 named contacts - predominantly members of the Association of Business Recovery Professionals (R3) - to participate in an online survey during February-March 2012. The sample base for the analysis is the 169 respondents who completed the survey (5.7% of the target audience). The comments supplied by respondents are reproduced verbatim apart from minor typographical corrections. A further analysis is in hand, evaluating the extent to which different groups of participants have responded to the survey questions.
