Section 340: Public companies: expenses of circulating members’ resolutions for AGM

Otherwise the company’s expenses will have to be met by the members who requested the circulation of the resolution unless the company resolves otherwise. In this case, the members requesting the statement must deposit a sum to cover the company’s costs (unless the company has resolved otherwise).
