The Limited Liability Partnerships (Forms) Regulations 2002

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

With effect from 2nd April 2002, these Regulations prescribe new forms 723SR and 723(change), for the purposes of section 288A of the Companies Act 1985 for use in respect of a member of a limited liability partnership who is a beneficiary of a confidentiality order made under section 723B of the Companies Act 1985.

The forms will allow a member of a limited liability partnership who has obtained a confidentiality order under those regulations to notify to Companies House particulars of his usual residential address and particulars of a change in that address. This information will then be held in a secure register to be maintained under the Limited Liability Partnerships (Particulars of Usual Residential Address) (Confidentiality Orders) Regulations 2002.

These Regulations also prescribe an additional Form LLP 363, which is the annual return for a limited liability partnership, together with continuation sheets. This form must be used so that the particulars of a service address will be given rather than of a usual residential address in the case where a member has obtained a confidentiality order under section 723 of the Companies Act 1985.
