[Method] Scrape data from the UK Government's Individual Insolvency Register (IIR) via web interface due to lack of API.

Workflow:

Identify common surnames and alphabetical letter combinations for systematic search iteration to ensure full coverage of all records on the register.

Compile extracted data into a single CSV or Excel file with one row per record.
Implement polite rate limiting to avoid overloading server.
