The managing director, manager or secretary must prepare annually and forward to the minister a statement as to the financial position and affairs of the company’; such state- ment to be certified by the auditors. All trust companies must have at least 100,000 dollars un- impaired paid up capital before transacting business. Amending Act, No. 22 of 1914 provides 4hat when cancellation, revocation or surrender of Letters Patent is accidental, the Lieutenant-Governor may permit their renewal.
