Do I need a company secretary?
Not all companies need to appoint a company secretary. If you are Ltd, it’s your choice.
The need for a company secretary may no longer be mandatory but there are a number of statutory procedures that companies must still continue to comply with.
What do I have to do to comply?
A company must have a certain amount of information made available to the public via Companies House. This is the general role of the company secretary and can be thought of as including the following:
- keeping the company’s records up to date
- keeping the public record up to date
- making sure the company abides by both its internal regulations and the law
