Draft Companies (Amendment No. 9) (Jersey) Law 2008 (Appointed Day) Act 200-
REPORT
This Act will bring into force Articles 17 to 22 of the Companies (Amendment No. 9) (Jersey) Law 2008 (“the Law”) on 1st August 2008. These Articles have already been approved by the States and the Privy Council. The Articles were subject to an Appointed Day Act rather than coming directly into force after the registration of the Law due to the possibility that they may be superseded by another Law – Companies (Amendment No. 10) (Jersey) Law 200- which was nearing completion at the same time and which might have overtaken the Law in being approved by the Privy Council. This possibility has not occurred and there is a requirement for these Articles to be brought into force.
There are no financial or manpower implications for the States arising from the adoption of the Appointed Day Act.
Explanatory Note
This Act will bring into force Articles 17 to 22 of the Companies (Amendment No. 9) (Jersey) Law 2008 on 1st August 2008.
