Thank you for your email of 2 February 2021 in which you requested from the Insolvency Service:

Annual statistics on revocation of DRO’s for the period 1st April to 31st March each year from 2009 to 2020 and then for the period from 1st April 2020 to 31st December 2020.

The above request to include reasons for revocation for the same periods stated above.

Your request has been dealt with under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).

I can confirm the agency holds the information that you have requested and I have provided the answers to your questions in the enclosed attachment.

If you are not satisfied with the response we have provided you and would like us to reconsider our decision by way of an internal review (IR), please contact our Information Rights Team at [email protected] or by post at:

You also have the right to contact the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you wish for them to investigate any complaint you may have regarding our handling of your request. However, please note that the ICO is likely to expect an IR to have been completed in the first instance.
