3.14 When must companies disclose details of their voting rights?
Companies must make this disclosure to the market via an RIS by 31 December 2006. Companies will also have to disclose any change which occurs
between the date on which the disclosure is made and 20 January 2007. Any subsequent changes will need to be disclosed on a monthly basis. The FSA
has introduced a new announcement headline type for these disclosures, “Total Voting Rights’”.
If a company fails to meet the deadline of 31 December will trading in their shares be suspended?
