Companies Act 2006 - The longest piece of legislation... ever! |   |
In case we needed reminding, The Times has published an interesting article outlining the key components of the Companies Act 2006.
It's main aim is to simplify company law (particularly for small businesses), but with the Act running into 701 sections, it is the longest single piece of legislation ever passed by Parliament!
The article provides a useful and concise guide to the legislation. You can read it here.
On Bytestart, we also have several high level guides to the legislation, as follows:
- Guide to The Companies Act 2006
- The Companies Act and Directors Duties
- The Companies Act 2006 & Private Companies
- The Companies Act - Implementation Timetable
