Oakham Town Council Cllr Alf Dewis
Oakham,Town Partnership Chairman Alf Dewis
I often wonder why the above still visits business's in Oakham and claims to be trading as Alf Dewis Consultancy
He applied for voluntary striking off a requirement of that is the company has not carried out business in the previous three months.
Speaking to local business people it appears Councillor Dewis has never stopped trading, one even showed be his business card.
He also told the local business person he works for Rutland County Council and his Business & management consultancy was very successful.
It all sounds a bit fishy to me, I wonder if its not time for Councillor Dewis to register if he is doing so well.
Something tells me Alf dreams and boasts of success when actually he failed, but all his egotist talk might just put him under the spotlight of suspicion.
Helen Briggs Chief Executive at Rutland County Council must be mistaken or lying when she wrote to me telling me Cllr Alf Dewis does not carry out work for Rutland County Council.
The question now is why is Cllr Dewis so convinced he does when he speaks to the public.
Why such confusion?

An application for voluntary striking off can only be made by the company, and must be made on the company’s behalf by its directors or a majority of them.
Sections 1004 and 1005 of the Companies Act 2006 set out the circumstances in which the company may not apply to be struck off. For example, the company may not make an application for voluntary strike off if, at any time in the last 3 months, it has:
- traded or otherwise carried on business;
- changed its name;
- made a disposal for value of property or rights that, immediately before ceasing to trade or otherwise carry on business, it held for the purpose of disposal for gain in the normal course of trading or otherwise carrying on business. For example, a company in business to sell apples could not continue selling apples during that 3 month period but it could sell the truck it once used to deliver the apples or the warehouse where they were stored:
- engaged in any other activity except one which is necessary or expedient for the purpose of:
- making an application for strike off or deciding whether to do so(for example, a company may seek professional advice on the application and pay the costs of submitting the ‘Striking off application by a company, Form DS01)’;
- concluding the affairs of the company;
- complying with any statutory requirement.
