====== Legal - Company director disqualification ======

You can be banned (‘disqualified’) from being a company director if you don’t meet your legal responsibilities..

Anyone can report a company director’s conduct as being ‘unfit’.

‘Unfit conduct’ includes:

  * allowing a company to continue trading when it can’t pay its debts
  * not keeping proper company accounting records
  * not sending accounts and returns to Companies House
  * not paying tax owed by the company
  * using company money or assets for personal benefit

You’re not usually allowed to be a company director if you’re under restrictions from bankruptcy or a Debt Relief Order.
