Section 319A Traded companies: questions at meetingsF1
At a general meeting of a traded company, the company must cause to be answered any question relating to the business being dealt with at the meeting put by a member attending the meeting.
No such answer need be given—
if to do so would—
interfere unduly with the preparation for the meeting, or
involve the disclosure of confidential information;
if the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or
if it is undesirable in the interests of the company or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered.
