Clause 65
Company Law Reform Bill [Lords]
Public Bill Committees, 22 June 2006, 9:45 am

James Brokenshire (Hornchurch, Conservative)
It sounds as though we are straying into a debate on “may” versus “shall”, which was debated in a different context in the other place. The word “shall” would have excluded other means of changing a name, whereas the word “may” is permissive and will not exclude, for example, the use of a special resolution. However, I hear what the Minister has said. In the interest of proceeding to other matters, I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
