Your legal obligations
The obligations placed on the officers of a company to maintain various statutory records and fulfill various compliance and reporting duties are often not fully understood or given priority and are therefore neglected. These obligations are prescribed by The Companies Act 1985 and imposed upon the officers of a company who are principally the directors and secretary.
Failure to comply with these can result in fines both for the company and the officers concerned. Persistent failure could ultimately lead to an individual being banned from being a company director. Compliance with these obligations is also taken into account by a Liquidator in the event of a company's failure and would weigh in any recommendation to the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry for a disqualification order under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
