Section 167:

167. Notice to be given of removal or resignation of Secretary (1) Where, during any accounting period of the company, the Secretary resigns or is removed from office, the company shall notify the Registrar within 28 days of such resignation or removal. (2) Where the Secretary is removed, the Secretary may require the company in its annual financial statements relating to that accounting period, to include a statement not exceeding a reasonable length, setting out the Secretary’s statement as to the circumstances that resulted in the removal. (3) Where the Secretary wishes to exercise the power referred to in subsection (2), the Secretary shall give written notice to that effect to the company not later than the end of the accounting period in which the removal took place and such notice shall include the statement referred to in subsection (2). (4) The statement of the Secretary referred to in subsection (2) shall be included in the annual report and, where no annual report is required, shall be included under a separate heading in the company’s annual financial statements. (5) Where, on the application of the company or any other person who claims to be aggrieved by the Secretary’s statement under subsection (2) being provided to shareholders, the Court is satisfied that the rights conferred by this section are being abused to secure needless publicity of defamatory matter, the Court may order that the statement need not be included in the annual report or financial statements and need not be provided to shareholders or be read out at the meeting, and the Court may further order that the costs of the application be paid in whole or in part by the Secretary.
