Business Comments Off on The Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act timings update

As we have previously reported The Act contains a number of measures which together represent significant change for companies and Companies House customers.

The Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act received Royal Assent in March 2015. It’s expected to be implemented to the timescales set out in details at https://www.gov.uk/government/news/the-small-business-enterprise-and-employment-bill-is-coming

We have been notified that the date of the December implementation of the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act has been changed to April 2016.

The elements that were due for implementation in December:

Director Disputes – a simpler way to get falsely appointed directors’ details removed from the register.

Registered office address disputes – a new process to help when a company is using an address for its registered office it doesn’t have authorisation for.
