Regulation 39 Amendment of particulars

A controller shall, by issuing an instruction to a company, amend the particulars set out in any proper instruction to register issued by him or it with respect to the name or address of the person registered or to be registered as holder if it is provided with appropriate evidence that there has been a change of the holder’s name or address.

A company may amend the appropriate register so as to reflect an instruction amended under this regulation other than at a periodic update of the register, if the instruction amended has already been acted upon.

A company need not give effect to an instruction as amended under this regulation if the amending instruction is received so close to a periodic update of the register that it is not reasonably practicable to have regard to it.
