790E: Company’s duty to keep information up-to-date
410.Section 790E requires a company to keep information in its PSC register up-to-date.
411.Subsections (2) and (5) require the company to give notice to registrable persons and RLEs as soon as reasonably practicable once the company knows or has reasonable cause to believe that a “relevant change” has occurred, a relevant change being ceasing to be a registrable person or RLE or a change in particulars (subsections (3) and (4)).
412.The notice must require the addressee to confirm whether the change has occurred and, if so, to state the date of the change and to correct, complete or confirm the particulars included in the notice (subsection (6)). As under section 790D, addressees must respond within one month from the date of the notice and further provision may be made by regulations in relation to the giving of such notices (subsection (7)).
413.A company need not give notice if it has already been informed of the relevant change. As under section 790D, information on registrable persons must have been provided by the individual or with their knowledge (otherwise the company must give notice to that individual).
