Section 7 Computerised records

Notwithstanding anything in the Companies Clauses Consolidation Act 1845, the Company may keep any register, index, minute book or book of account which they are required to keep either in bound books or by recording the matter in question in any other manner.

Any such recording may be other than in legible form so long as the recording is capable of being reproduced in legible form.

Any duty imposed on the Company to allow inspection of, or to furnish a copy of, a register or other record or any part of it shall if it is kept as a recording in non-legible form be treated as a duty to allow inspection of, or to furnish, a reproduction of the recording or of the relevant part of it in a legible form.

Where any register, index, minute book or book of account is not kept by making entries in a bound book, but by some other means, adequate precautions shall be taken for guarding against falsification and for facilitating its discovery.
