Airport operator threatened with winding up
07.04.09
The company that operates Coventry Airport will be wound up unless it files its accounts soon, the Courier reports. Companies House has said that it plans to strike West Midlands International Airport Ltd from its register and dissolve the business, as its accounts are over 5 months late.
A statement issued on Monday said: ‘The Registrar of Companies gives notice that, unless cause is shown to the contrary, at the expiration of 3 months [from April 7 2009] the name of West Midlands International Airport Ltd will be struck off the register and the company will be dissolved.’
However, Coventry Airport director Brian Cox told the newspaper: ‘The late registration of our 2007 accounts is being addressed by our finance department and external accountants. I would like to apologise for any inconvenience this delay has caused and to assure all concerned that this oversight will be rectified soon.’
Passenger flights to and from the airport ceased in November. It has since abandoned plans to build a passenger terminal and is focusing on freight and business flights.
