Power to form or be involved in certain bodies corporate

47.Section 9 amends the LSC’s current power to form or invest in companies, as set out in section 18 of the 2000 Act, to make it clear that the LSC can form any type of company, including companies limited by guarantee as well as companies limited by shares, with the consent of the Secretary of State.

48.Subsection (4) contains retrospective provision that ensures that companies limited by guarantee that have already been formed between 1 September 2000 and the date on which this section comes into force were formed lawfully.

49.Section 18, as amended by this section, provides that the LSC’s power to form charitable incorporated organisations (a new form of body corporate created by the Charities Act 2006) is subject to the consent of the Secretary of State.
