The Companies and Limited Partnerships Amendment Bill has received its first reading: see here. The Bill provides, amongst other things, for the criminalisation of certain breaches of directors' duties (see clause 4) and the requirement for New Zealand registered companies to have a resident agent (responsible for reporting and recording keeping obligations) if they do not have a director who lives in New Zealand or in a country in which New Zealand judgments imposing regulatory fines can be enforced (see subpart 2 of the Bill). The explanatory note accompanying the Bill is available here.
