Why File a Change of Secretary for Incorporated Trustees with CAC?

The company secretary in an Incorporated Trustee organization plays a vital role in ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and maintaining the organization’s corporate records. When there is a change in the secretary, it is a legal requirement to update the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) to maintain proper records and ensure compliance.

Filing a Change of Secretary with the CAC is essential whenever the secretary resigns, is removed, or a new one is appointed.

  • Statutory Requirement: Every Incorporated Trustee must have a company secretary. Any change in the secretary’s position must be filed with the CAC for legal compliance.

  • Maintain Accurate Public Records: The CAC’s public registry is used by regulatory bodies, banks, donors, and other stakeholders to verify the organization’s governance structure. Filing a Change of Secretary ensures these records are up-to-date.
