Checklist
- The director of a proprietary company that has only one director may pass a resolution by recording it and signing the record.
- That director may make a declaration by recording it and signing the record. Recording and signing the declaration satisfies any requirement in the Act that the declaration be made at a directors' meeting.
- The section's note points to sections 295 and 494 for directors' declarations. Those sections were not opened. The note also says passage of the resolution or the making of the declaration must be recorded in the minute books.
- The lawyer confirms there is only one director. The record is not treated as passed or made until that director has signed.
