A company must ensure that its registered email address is at all times an appropriate email address.
An email address is an "appropriate email address" if, in the ordinary course of events, emails sent to it by the registrar would be expected to come to the attention of a person acting on behalf of the company.
If a company fails, without reasonable excuse, to comply with this section an offence is committed by—
the company, and
every officer of the company who is in default.
A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable on summary conviction—
in England and Wales, to a fine;
in Scotland or Northern Ireland, to a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale and, for continued contravention, a daily default fine not exceeding one-tenth of level 5 on the standard scale.
