Regulation 17B Duty to ensure disqualified person is not a member
Section 169A applies to LLPs, modified so that it reads as follows -
"169A Duty to remove disqualified members
(1) The members of an LLP must take any steps that are necessary to ensure that any member of the LLP who becomes disqualified under the directors disqualification legislation (see section 159A(2)) ceases to be a member of the LLP.
(2) Nothing in this section affects any liability of a person under any provision of the Limited Liability Partnerships Act 2000 or any other enactment, if, having ceased to hold office by virtue of subsection (1), the person purports to act as a member of an LLP.
(3) In relation to a person who became a member of an LLP before the time when regulation 19 of the Limited Liability Partnerships (Application of Company Law) Regulations 2024 (S.I. 2024/234) comes into force, the reference in subsection (1) to a person who becomes disqualified includes a reference to a person who, at that time, is already disqualified.
(4) If the members fail to comply with this section an offence is committed by each member of the LLP who is in default.
(5) Where any such offence is committed by a member that is a legal entity, any officer of the member also commits the offence if -
(a) the officer is an individual who is in default, or
(b) the officer is a legal entity that is in default and one of its officers is in default.
