Commentary Part 18: Acquisition by Limited Company of Its Own Shares Chapter 6: Treasury Shares Section 730: Treasury shares: notice of cancellation
1030.This section restates sections 169A(1)(b)(i), (2) to (4) of the 1985 Act and Schedule 24 to that Act. As now, where a company cancels shares which it has held in treasury it is required to give notice of this to the registrar within 28 days of the cancellation. The provision has, however, been updated to require companies to file a statement of capital in these circumstances (see note on section 619).
