What the document covers
The direction explains notification of filing errors and the Registrar's approach to rectification applications. An error notice initiates consideration; it does not automatically rewrite the register.
Specific requirements and implications
The Registrar considers whether the mistake appeared in a lodged company document and was clerical or typographical. Information that was correct when filed is not made erroneous by a later reversal of the underlying transaction. Examples include an omitted auditor's report and a mistaken discharge-of-charge description. Disputed share transfers and substantive legal questions may require a court route under section 12B rather than administrative correction.
