Companies and directors should take note that a director who is convicted of three or more filing related offences under the Companies Act within a period of five years, will be disqualified as a director, under S155 of the Companies Act. Once disqualified, an individual will not be allowed to be a company director or take part in the management of any local or foreign company for five years, effective from the date of the conviction. A disqualified director cannot take on any new appointment as a director, or be in any way directly or indirectly concerned or take part in the management of a company.
