Companies Act 2014 section 1289

What this Chapter does and references to relevant Chapter 2 requirements

Section 1289 introduces the special requirements that apply when a public limited company (PLC) seeks to re-register as a private company, and explains what is meant by "relevant Chapter 2 requirements" throughout this Chapter.

• This Chapter covers two scenarios: where no court application is made to cancel the re-registration resolution, and where such an application is made — with different rules depending on the outcome of that application.
• Additional requirements beyond those in Chapter 2 must be satisfied in certain cases before re-registration can proceed.
• The "relevant Chapter 2 requirements" generally means the procedural requirements of section 1285 for re-registration.
• Where a company without share capital proposes to re-register as a company with share capital, the relevant Chapter 2 requirements include both section 1285 and section 1286.
