A person is taken to be interested in shares or debentures if a body corporate is interested in them and—

(a)

that body corporate or its directors are accustomed to act in accordance with his directions or instructions, or

(b)

he is entitled to exercise or control the exercise of one-third or more of the voting power at general meetings of that body corporate.
