There seems to be an issue with the ‘total_items’ value returned when querying the officers REST API for company number 06843107. As you’ll see in the response below, the API returns a total items count of 4, however, only three officers are included in the response. Something similar can be observed on the Companies House website, where it displays “4 officers / 3 resignations” but only displays 3 officers.
Would you be able to shed any light on this issue?
