The members of a company may require it to exercise its powers under section 793 (notice requiring information about interests in shares).
A company is required to do so once it has received requests (to the same effect) from members of the company holding at least 10% of such of the paid-up capital of the company as carries a right to vote at general meetings of the company (excluding any voting rights attached to any shares in the company held as treasury shares).
A request—
may be in hard copy form or in electronic form,
must—
state that the company is requested to exercise its powers under section 793,
specify the manner in which the company is requested to act, and
give reasonable grounds for requiring the company to exercise those powers in the manner specified, and
must be authenticated by the person or persons making it.
