Meeting, notice of
In this guide
Members of companies must receive notice of every meeting (the articles of association normally state that notice may be sent by post and need not be sent to anyone not resident in the United Kingdom). The notice must contain details of any special business to be transacted. For the annual general meeting twenty-one days’ notice is required, for other meetings (but see below) fourteen days. Where the meeting is to remove a director, or authorize a director of seventy to act, or to remove the auditor, the company must receive twenty-eight days’ notice of intent to move the resolution, and must pass this notice on to the members, with the notice of the meeting. The director and the auditor have a right to make representations at the meeting. If wrong notice is given the meeting is invalid, unless: (1) at the annual general meeting all members who are entitled to attend and vote do so; (2) at other meetings members holding 95 per cent or more of the nominal value of the relevant shares agree otherwise.
