Established in July 2022 under the Companies (Corporate Enforcement Authority) Act 2021, the CEA’s statutory mandate derives principally from the Companies Act 2014. The CEA is also conferred with statutory functions in respect of certain investment vehicles under the Irish Collective Asset-management Vehicles Act 2015. In addition, the CEA is the competent authority for the purpose of imposing sanctions on company directors under the Companies (Statutory Audits) Act 2018.
The CEA’s functions under the Companies Act 2014 include :
-
promoting compliance with company law;
-
investigating instances of suspected breaches of company law;
-
taking appropriate enforcement action in response to identified breaches of company law;
-
supervising the activities of liquidators of insolvent companies; and
-
operating a regime of restriction and disqualification undertakings in respect of directors of insolvent companies.
The webinar will provide attendees with an overview of the CEA and of its first six months since establishment.
