Removal of material from the register

1094.(1) The registrar may remove from the register anything that appears to the registrar to be—

(a)a document, or material derived from a document, accepted under section 1073 (power to accept documents not meeting requirements for proper delivery), or

(b)unnecessary material as defined by section 1074.

(2) The power to remove material from the register under this section may be exercised—

(a)on the registrar’s own motion, or

(b)on an application made in accordance with the provisions applied to LLPs by section 1094A (further provision about removal of material from the register).

(3) The registrar may exercise the power to remove from the register anything the registration of which had legal consequences only if satisfied that the interest of the LLP, or (if different) the applicant, in removing the material outweighs any interest of other persons in the material continuing to appear on the register.

Further provision about removal of material from the register

1094A.  Part 3 (removal of material from the register) of the Registrar (Annotation, Removal and Disclosure Restrictions) Regulations 2024 (S.I. 2024/54) applies to LLPs, modified so that every reference to a company is read as if it were a reference to an LLP.

Power of court to make consequential orders following removal

1094B.(1) Where the registrar removes anything from the register otherwise than in pursuance of a court order, the court may, on an application by a person with sufficient interest, make such consequential orders as the court thinks fit as to the legal effects of the inclusion of the material on the register or its removal.

(2) In this section the reference to the registrar removing material from the register includes the registrar determining that anything purported to be delivered to the registrar under any enactment was not in fact delivered under an enactment and therefore does not form part of the register..
