49496 (2025). Shanan Halbert to the Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs: How many businesses, if, any in Northcote have gone into receivership during the last 18 months?

Hon Scott Simpson: I am advised that no companies in Northcote appear to have been placed in receivership in the last 18 months, according to the companies register as at 13 October 2025. This information is based on a search of companies’ registered office addresses recorded on the companies register. The Companies Act 1993 does not require companies to register their principal place of business, trading address, or the location where business activity takes place. Accordingly, the registered office address may not reflect the actual location of a business.
