Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

moved Amendment No. A190DA:"Page 335, line 19, after ““““the”” insert ““records””" The noble Lord said: I shall be very brief in speaking to the amendment. The title of Clause 692 is ““The register”” and we believe that there is potential for confusion between the references to ““the register”” as defined in this clause and the references to ““the register””—that is, the company’s register of members—in Clauses 122 to 125. To avoid any confusion, we suggest that ““the register”” in Clause 692 should be referred to as ““the records register””. Subsection (2) states:"““The records relating to companies are referred to collectively in the Companies Act as ‘the register’””." We suggest it should be ““the records register””. I therefore beg, in the spirit of clarity, to move Amendment No. A190DA.
