Audit committee
15.25
In relation to the requisite qualifications for the signatory under paragraph 9.27 of the Main LR and a member of the audit committee under paragraph 15.09 of the Main LR, if the person concerned fulfils the requirements set out in the said provisions or paragraph 7.1 of Practice Note 13 (“Said Qualifications”), does he still have to submit an application to Bursa Securities for approval?
No. He does not have to submit any application to Bursa Securities for approval. The requirement to seek Bursa Securities’ approval is only necessary if the person concerned does not fulfill the Said Qualifications but is nonetheless considered by the listed issuer to have the requisite knowledge and experience that will enable him to discharge his obligations as a signatory or audit committee as if he had the Said Qualifications.
