Proceeding contribution from Lord Sharman (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 1 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Company Law Reform Bill [HL].


Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

moved Amendment No. 300TA:"Page 139, line 13, leave out ““statement”” and insert ““resolution””" The noble Lord said: The purpose of this amendment is to correct what I perceive to be an error. Clause 313 provides the members of a public company with the right to request the company to circulate a resolution for discussion at the company’s AGM. Clause 314 details the duty of the public company to circulate members’ resolutions for discussion at the AGM. These requirements relate to the circulation of copies of such resolutions to the members. However, subsection (3) refers to the circulation of a statement, rather than a resolution. This needs to be rectified. I beg to move.
