Company Secretary

The advent of the Companies Act 2006 has brought about a number of changes for companies. One such change is that from 6 April 2008 private companies can choose whether or not to have a company secretary.

Where a private limited company chooses not to have a company secretary, any item that would normally be sent to the company secretary is treated as being sent to the company.

Whether a small company has a company secretary or not the person responsible for company secretarial duties which would normally be the responsibility of the company secretary will be carried out either by a director or a person authorised by the directors.  Therefore the director will ultimately be responsible for keeping the public records at Companies House up to date.

• maintenance and safekeeping of the company registers
• drafting and filing company minutes
• preparing and filing company resolutions
• completing and filing statutory forms
• the filing of the company annual accounts
