Commentary Part 31: Dissolution and Restoration to the Register Chapters 1 and 2: Striking Off and Property of Dissolved Company Section 1003: Striking off on applications by company
1268.Section 652A of the 1985 Act currently provides that, in certain circumstances, a company may apply to the registrar to be struck off the register. The provision is limited to private companies. This section, in restating that provision, no longer includes the limitation, with the effect that public companies too may now apply for voluntary strike-off.
