New Clause 312

Company Law Reform Bill [Lords] – in a Public Bill Committee at 1:45 pm on 20 July 2006.

Alert me about debates like this

Endorsement of certificate on debentures

‘(1) The company shall cause a copy of every certificate of registration given under section (Register of charges to be kept by registrar) to be endorsed on every debenture or certificate of debenture stock which is issued by the company, and the payment of which is secured by the charge so registered.

(2) But this does not require a company to cause a certificate of registration of any charge so given to be endorsed on any debenture or certificate of debenture stock issued by the company before the charge was created.

(3) If a person knowingly and wilfully authorises or permits the delivery of a debenture or certificate of debenture stock which under this section is required to have endorsed on it a copy of a certificate of registration, without the copy being so endorsed upon it, he commits an offence.

(4) A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.’.—[Margaret Hodge.]
