| Significant late
filing penalties and the risk of strike off apply to
the failure to file timely annual returns. Restriction
and disqualification proceedings are being regularly
taken against company directors for serious breaches
of the Companies Acts.
McCann & Associates can assist you, as Company
Directors, in making you aware of your obligations.
In particular, directors should note the rule that accounts
must be 'signed, sealed and delivered' within
9 months of the period end in order to satisfy the AGM
requirement & promptly meet the statutory Annual
Return Date (‘ARD’).
We utilise a specialised Company Secretarial Software
Programme to help ensure that the:
- ARD is not missed & the Annual Return
is filed on time
- AGM and other company meetings are properly
convened and minuted
- 7 Statutory Registers and Minute Books
are maintained in accordance with the Companies Acts
We also offer a full range of additional company secretarial
services such as:
- Company Formations – within 3-5 working days,
including Tax Registration
- Filing of ‘6-Month Annual Return’
- Company Searches – search results sent by
e-mail on receipt
- Advice on the ‘Audit Exemption’
- Business Name Applications
- Share Issues, Transfers and Share Reorganisations
- Company Name Changes
- Voluntary Company Strike Off Applications
- Changes to Memorandum & Articles of Association
as required
Distance is no problem and we can provide an efficient
nationwide service.
For further information on the above or for advice
on any area of company secretarial compliance please
