Course Outline:

This is not an introduction to the New Companies Ordinance, please refer to An Overview of the Companies Ordinance (Cap.622) 2017 for an introduction to the New Companies Ordinance.

Belinda Wong will discuss the questions on some of the sections of the Companies Ordinance and some specified forms with a view to raising awareness of the issues involved and will also propose ways to handle some of the issues.

These questions will be explored in the course:

  • What legal regime we are in
    1. In respect of passing a members’ resolution for reporting exemption, why a special notice is required to be issued by a member to the company
    2. Division 2 Part 4 permits the issue of partly paid shares, why model articles for private companies limited by shares (Cap.622H) only allow the issue of fully paid shares
    3. Why is the new concept of ‘potential member’ necessary
    4. What may happen when an alternate director appointed by a director is removed by his/her fellow directors
  • What types of companies are we getting
    1. What are the differences between limited company and unlimited company
    2. How is s.359(3) feasible in view of the definition of a ‘company limited by guarantee’
    3. Should companies limited by guarantee be used for ‘for-profit business’ purpose as change of membership does not incur stamp duty payment
    4. Charity vs. social enterprise
  • Meeting and voting
    1. Why members have to be notified of the passing of a resolution when it is not yet effective under the law
    2. Why it seems there are more than one vote counting systems in the Companies Ordinance
    3. Is a signature to a written resolution of members being equivalent to voting ‘by a show of hands’ or by ‘poll’
  • Amalgamation
  • Specified forms
    1. Can the Registrar of Companies design a specified form conferring signing authority to persons not specified in the Companies Ordinance
    2. Who can be appointed as company secretary in accordance with the specified forms and under the Companies Ordinance
    3. Solvency statement
