Expansion[edit]

Obviously this is all stubby and the links need to be put into sentences. But it's a start, and I hope to make it a really good page. It's surprising how much information I've been able to find in various places, dotted around on random pages. Together it's quite substantial. Particular good is the Board of directors page, written mostly I think by User:Legis. There's plenty more yet to go, and it'll be useful to have a purely UK source. There isn't anything approaching a decent page on any other country's company laws yet. This should be the first. Wik idea 11:56, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updates to 2021[edit]

New cases and sources (please add suggestions!):

Listing Rules, "(i) a five–year time–dependent sunset clause after which shares revert to one share, one vote, (ii) enhanced–voting shares may only be held by directors and revert to one share, one vote upon a transfer of those shares, (iii) the maximum permitted ratio of votes attached to enhanced–voting shares to votes attached to inferior-voting shares is 20:1; and (iv) enhanced–voting rights may only be exercised on resolutions relating to the incumbency of the enhanced–voting shareholder on the board, or on other resolutions following a change of control of the company."
BTI 2014 LLC (Appellant) v Sequana SA UKSC, Sequana’s subsidiary was liable to indemnify BAT for costs arising from the clean-up of a polluted river. The directors of the subsidiary resolved that it should pay a substantial dividend to Sequana, without – BAT says – leaving enough money in the subsidiary to pay for the clean-up costs.

Possible typo on first line[edit]

Is there a reason why "United Kingdom company law" is spelled as "United Kingdom companyyy law" in the very first line of this article? Could be potential vandalism, however, I am unqualified on this subject to confirm.
