To facilitate implementation of the new CO, 12 pieces of subsidiary legislation have been made to provide for the relevant technical and procedural matters. 

 

The new CO and the subsidiary legislation have commenced operation on 3 March 2014.

 

The Companies Ordinance (Cap. 32) has been retitled as "Companies (Winding Up and Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance (Cap. 32)" containing provisions relating to prospectuses, winding-up, insolvency of companies and disqualification of directors.
