Clause 160

A company may, on giving not less than fourteen days notice to the Registrar, close the register of members or any class of members for any time or times, but so that no part of the register shall be closed for more than thirty days in the aggregate in any calendar year.[U.K.s. 115.][Aust. s. 153.]

The register and index shall be open to the inspection of any member without charge and of any other person on payment for each inspection of one dollar or such less sum as the company requires.

Any member or other person may request the company to furnish him with a copy of the register, or of any part thereof, but only so far as it relates to names, addresses, number of shares held and amounts paid on shares, on payment in advance of one dollar or such less sum as the company requires for every hundred words or fractional part thereof required to be copied and the company shall cause any copy so requested by any person to be sent to that person within a period of twenty-one days or within such further period as the Registrar considers reasonable in the circumstances commencing on the day next after the day on which the request is received by the company.

If any copy so requested is not sent within the period prescribed by subsection (3) of this section the company and every officer of the company who is in default shall be guilty of an offence under this Act and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars and also to a default penalty.
