Key Principle

A director who applies for a Bounce Back Loan on the basis of a grossly inflated turnover figure and then applies the loan funds for purposes other than the economic benefit of the business (including taking the money for himself) falls below the standards of probity and competence required of a fit director and is properly subject to a lengthy disqualification.
