## Explanatory note

(This note does not form part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend, with effect from 1st April 1995, the Companies (Welsh Language Forms and Documents) Regulations 1994 (“the 1994 Regulations”) which prescribed certain additional forms under the Companies Act 1985 (“the Act”) in Welsh as well as in English.
These Regulations prescribe the following new forms which are in Welsh as well as in English, namely:
a statement of the first directors and secretary and intended situation of the registered office of a company, under section 10 of the Act; and
a statutory declaration of compliance with the requirements on application for registration of a company, under section 12 of the Act.
In addition they prescribe amended additional forms in Welsh as well as English, namely:
a form for giving notice to the registrar of companies of a change in the situation of a company’s registered office address, under section 287 of the Act;
forms for giving notice to the registrar of companies of particulars of appointment and resignation of directors and secretaries, and of any change in the particulars contained in the register, under section 288 of the Act; and
an annual return form, for the purpose of section 363 of the Act (delivery of annual returns).
The amendments to these forms are intended to make them easier to use. The previously prescribed additional forms are revoked with effect from 1st April 1996, but remain forms prescribed for the relevant provisions of the Act until that date.
The Regulation also prescribe that a copy of the memorandum and articles (and any alteration thereto) of a relevant company (as defined in Regulation 4(3) of the 1994 Regulations) whose registered office is to be in Wales may be delivered in Welsh to the registrar of companies without being accompanied by a certified translation into English.
