Frequently Asked Questions

Do we have to hold AGMs?

It is possible to de-regulate a resident management company so that AGM's are not held. Even if the 1989 Companies Act de-regulation package is adopted any leaseholder can call an Extraordinary General Meeting EGM to discuss any business that would otherwise be discussed at an AGM. The de-regulation package must be unanimously adopted.
