Welcome to the Company Law Review Group
The Company Law Review Group is a statutory advisory expert body charged with advising the Minister for Enterprise, Trade & Employment on the review and development of company law in Ireland. The Review Group was accorded statutory advisory status by Part 7 of the Company Law Enforcement Act 2001 and operates on a two-yearly work-programme.
UPDATE - General Scheme of the New Companies Bill.
The General Scheme of Bill contains legislative proposals emergent from the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment to reform and consolidate all existing companies legislation in a single companies code.
The CLRG submitted the General Scheme of the Companies Consolidation and Reform Bill to the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment in March 2007. Approval was given by Government for the drafting of a Companies Consolidation and Reform Bill along the lines of the General Scheme in July 2007.
Drafting by OPC began formally on 1 December 2007. Due to the sheer size and complexity of the process, it is expected that the full Bill will be completed towards the Autumn of 2011.
