I'm wanting to do some research on local firms and eventually post the information on-line. Part of what I want to quote is the turnover of a company. On the Companies House website I can purchase the annual accounts of a LLP or Limited company for a particular year which will give details of their P&L (where the turnover is over £5M.)
My question is whether I need permission to report the financial figures from Companies House i.e Are annual accounts held by Companies House subject to copyright?
