I am delighted to have been asked to speak during Enterprise Week of Local Enterprise Office Leitrim on
New Companies Act – Does it impact my Business?
This is a free event for companies and local businesses on 9 March 2016. It is a 2 hour breakfast workshop starting at 8am. Venue is the Landmark Hotel in Carrick on Shannon in County Leitrim.
I will discuss the provisions of Companies Act 2014 for companies and cover:
Conversion of Companies
- What action you need to take in 2016 if you are an existing private company – should you convert into the new type private company or become a designated activity company?
- What if you take no action?
Court applications
- Anything new in the legislation – Ability to apply to court if you miss the filing deadline for the annual return, list of directors’ duties, specified offences.
-
The new type of private company – what are the benefits?
Director Transactions Rules
- Why loans between a company and directors (or connected persons) should be documented in writing.
- Director and Connected Person Transactions with a company – What transactions are caught? What does a company need to do? What shareholder approval is required?
