The Companies (Northern Ireland) Order 1986 (revoked)

[F1 17.]—(1) For the purposes of paragraphs [F1 15(c)] and[F1 16(c)], a transaction or arrangement between a company and a director of it or of its holding company, or a person connected with such a director, is to be treated (if it would not otherwise be so) as a transaction, arrangement or agreement in which that director is interested.

(2) An interest in such a transaction or arrangement is not “material” for the purposes of paragraphs[F1 15(c)] and[F1 16(c)] if in the board's opinion it is not so; but this is without prejudice to the question whether or not such an interest is material in a case where the board have not considered the matter.

“This board” here means the directors of the company preparing the accounts, or a majority of those directors, but excluding in either case the director whose interest it is.
