EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations prescribe amended form 363a for the purposes of section 363(2) of the Companies Act 1985, with effect from 1 October 2008. The Regulations also revoke the following existing forms 363a and 363s (prescribed by the Companies (Forms) (Amendment) Regulations 2002) and form 363a and 363s (prescribed by Companies (Forms) (Amendment) Regulations 1999 and retained as alternatives to the forms prescribed by the Companies (Forms) (Amendment) Regulations 2002). However, continued use of those revoked forms is permitted for returns made up to a date before 1 October 2008.
Form 363a is amended to reflect amendments to the shareholder information provided. The amendments are made by the Companies Act 1985 (Annual Return) Regulations 2008 (S.I.2008/1659) applying to annual returns made up to a date on or after 1 October 2008. The type of information to be supplied depends on whether or not any of the company’s shares were admitted to trading on a regulated market during the period to which the return relates.
