UK: the Companies Act 2006 (Accounts, Reports and Audit) Regulations 2009

The Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform has published a draft of the Companies Act 2006 (Accounts, Reports and Audit) Regulations 2009. In the accompanying consultation paper, BERR explains that the Regulations are required to implement the requirements of Directive 2006/46/EC in respect of corporate governance statements which are published separately from the directors' report. 

The Regulations deal with the publication and auditing of such corporate governance statements. They also make changes to Part 15 (Accounts and Reports) of the Companies Act (2006) in order to correct several minor errors.
