DOMINION LEGISLATION—NEWFOUNDLAND 847 S. 91. An annual general meeting must be held by all companies, once at least in every calendar year and not more than 18 months after the holding of the last preceding general meeting. The Public Utilities Companies Act applies to all gas, electricity and water supply companies. The Winding-up Acts deal with winding-up on grounds other than insolvency and their provisions are almost identical with the other Provincial Winding-up Acts. NEWFOUNDLAND. Company law in Newfoundland is governed by the Companies Act 1916 (Ch. 127 of the Consolidated Statutes), as amended by ch. 14 of 1920 and ch. 18 of 1929. The provisions of the main Act of 1916 are almost identical with those of the English Act of 1908, and the two amending Acts have altered it but slightly, the Act of 1920 referring solely to the registration of existing companies and that of 1929 relating exclusively to fees. There are one or two differences between the law of the Province and English law which are:— company or association mav be formed under the Act fer the nnrn-se ¢ carrying on the business or pankins v three or more persons may form a company. Jeneral meeting must be held once at least in every year. (There is no provision that it must not be held at a greater interval than fifteen months from the holding of the previous general meeting). <very company must hold a general meeting within four months after its memorandum of association 1s registered. change of name must be by special resolution together with the approval of the Governor-in- Council testified in writing under the hand of the Colonial Secretary. special resolution is one passed by a three- quarters majority under the same conditions as under the English Act of 1908. The con- Armatory meeting, however, may be held at an interval of not less than seven days and not more than one month from the date of the holding of the first meeeting. a1y company may agree in writing to refer to arbitration any existing or future difference arising between itself and another companv or 3erson.
