Always see the SPECIAL ARTICLES to see if that applies and not the MODEL
ARTICLES/COMPANIES ACT - Given the facts, the company has adopted an un-
amended model articles of association (standard model articles) and there is nothing
different stated in terms of the procedure for changing / doing X. Therefore, the change of
name of the company would need to be passed by special resolution / ordinary
resolution / majority vote.

reference date – this will need to be effected (s392(4))
by giving “notice” to the Registrar – i.e. filing
notice at Companies House.

(3) A notice extending a company’s current
or previous accounting reference period is
not effective if given less than five years after
the end of an earlier accounting reference
period of the company that was extended
under this section….. We know that the
Company has changed its accounting
reference date before – this was in 2003 so
17 years ago. There is no problem here.
Filing Deadline
(4) A notice under this section may not be
given in respect of a previous accounting
reference period if the period for filing
accounts…. for the financial year determined
by reference to that accounting reference
period has already expired. The current
accounting reference period which is to be
extended, would end on 31st December – so
deadline for filing the notice in the Register is
the deadline for filing the company’s
accounts for the periods up to 31st
December. This won’t be a problem as the
company will file the notice as soon as
possible

(5) An accounting reference period may not
be extended so as to exceed 18 months and
a notice under this section is ineffective if the
current or previous accounting reference
period as extended in accordance with the
notice would exceed that limit. No problem
here – we know that the accounting
reference will be extended to the 31st March
so it’s going to be extended by 3 moths so
the current accounting reference period will
be 15 months.
