Yawnsville baby.
The fact that 'punters' across the Channel Islands have lent their names to companies various has been known for many many years.
I would not be at all surprised to learn that this has featured on Bergerac. [Astonished myself there, that I had spelled it correctly first time, I shall pour myself an award later.]
Just as an aside...isn't it wonderful how these big international companies such as KPMG give so freely of their personnel's time to help successive governments and opposition partys? Altruism of the highest order, one simply has to wonder at the munificence of it all.

We often hear one particular truism here;If you want something doing ask a busy (wo)man.
This should all be stamped out, and PDQ...say three or four years...or should that be three or four Parliamentary terms?

On BBC's Panorama now, I hope the relevant bodies put a stop to this but I will not hold my breathe.

the thing that strikes me is that many companies pay a retainer to a "lord" so that it looks good on their letter heading, now we read that if a company director knows next to nothing about the business then a law has been broken.
a whole new can of worms.
