A man stole more than £500k from a number of companies, which his wife spent on luxury holidays in Spain.
Hugh Black, 58, from Rainford, set up several businesses installing energy efficient home improvements, such as loft and cavity wall insulation, in order to submit fraudulent claims.
One of these companies, McClean Energy, was used to submit most of the claims and was run by Black’s right-hand man Desmond Fazackerley, 59, from Failsworth, Manchester.
